Just weird that people of any color weren’t allowed to do certain things or enter many establishments.

I can’t imagine that world and am glad it’s dead.

Here’s another good use of the song, playing it as a backdrop to scenes of Disney princesses being rescued by their princes-

I figure the libs and feminazis will have this song criminalized eventually for being “anti-feminist” even though it just emphasizes a fact of nature, i.e., women like a strong man who can rescue them.

Imagine:

“Mother, I would like you to meet my new girlfriend,
Fontilla Bass.”

Unforgetable.
