@[nysh:35522] I think the first 2 times it's "the bell has tolled" and the second two times it's "My barrel house told." But that does bring up the question: How does a barrel house tell ? (see discussion on the Q above).

@[Stone:35521] Free Came here to discuss this very thing. "Barrel-house" generally means a bar / or the style of music played at old bars that were called that. A lot of songs say "barrel house all night long" which makes sense - drinking and playing music all night. But I wonder what "My barrel-house told" means. I wonder if a barrel-house might also refer to a lover with whom you meat at a barrel house. If so then this would make sense for this song. His lover told on him, so that's why he's in trouble with his wife. |
