The Challenge was to find a song related to the theme, North/South/East/West.
Here is mine, an old-time tune called Buttons and Bows, the first line is East is East and West is West:
And the wrong one I have chose
Let’s go where they keep on wearin’
Those frills and flowers and buttons and bows
Rings and things and buttons and bows.
Take me where the cement grows
Let’s move down to some big town
Where they love a gal by the cut o’ her clothes
And you’ll stand out, in buttons and bows.
Or skirts that you’ve homespun
But I’ll love ya’ longer, stronger
Where yer friends don’t tote a gun
And the cactus hurts my toes
Let’s vamoose where gals keep a-usin’
Those silks and satins and linen that shows
And I’m all yours in buttons and bows.
In high silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes
And French perfume that rocks the room
And I’m all yours in buttons and bows.
