Before the light
Hold me again
With all of your might
In the still of the night
In the still of the night
A couple of centuries ago ... 1962 or 3, ....
Boston area was served by a farm and conglomerate ... the HOOD milk company .. (quart bottles delivered by one of those cute trucks ...
bottles capped with cardboard caps
that, if you waited too long in the winter to get the bottles from your front stoop, the milk would freeze and push the cap up ...)
.. and the HOOD CO. had a treat called a HOODSIE, which was a small tub of ice cream that came with a wooden spoon/paddle ...
usually only eaten by kids under 12 because it was a sure sign you hadn't grown up yet if you still ate HOODSIE's
The local teenage dance at the Catholic church .. (make room for the Holy Ghost ... C'mon, you two ... separate a little ) ..
was called The Hoodsie Hop and the last dance was always In The Still Of The Night.
You probably hang out with guys who call salsa marinara “gravy,” and go “downa shore” in the summer. LOL. Doo Wop is to aging coogines what Tyler Perry films are to middle aged southern blacks.
