The Lyrics

Thanks to Agrimorfee for the title.
I put an "l" on "oo."
What did I find?
A word--a place for droppin' poo.
Used by Limeys--
My other findings:
In my native land it's
"Low". . .north U.S. towns.

For a Scot who's randy,
It's "love," bandied to pass lasses' mounds.

And the fourth "l" on "oo":
Card game: cut time,
Cut time.*

So there's "loo,"
And there's "loo,"
Also "loo,"
Fin'lly, "loo.
That's a lot.

But none share
Etymology
Dutch, Yank, Brit, Scot.

So, dear me!

I put an "l" on "oo"--
Four defs. I find.


*Loo is an abbreviation of "lanterloo," gambling card game often mentioned in English literature. Lanterloo derives from the Dutch "lanterlu."
