Well, I'm not sure if this is really an explanation, but I think it's "daylight come."
So, back to George Washington for a second - wouldn't he want to keep at least ONE of his dogs around the house? Martha must've been allergic or something ...
yes, i think jd is right. that song always made me wonder though, does one only pick bananas at night?
Yup, it's the daylight, all right!
JD, nice work! And I'm sure it had something to do with Martha: why in the world would somebody give up his dog??
Kim, that's a good question. That song probably raises quite a few questions...maybe there's a DVD with commentary that would answer them :)
Yes it seems like it's "day light come", when George Washington retired from hunting, why did he gave away all of his dogs. Its not required to give up his dogs for retiring form hunting.
