It's a tune called Big Knee Gal.
There's all kinds of things that you can talk about women about, you know.
[C] When I was growing up, we didn't have, uh, she was tall and stately going for me in my neighborhood.
We had, you know, she's an old heavy hip gal who lived over there on the avenue.
You know which one I mean.
So that kind of talk and describing things, you know, got me to, right, thinking about writing this tune.
It's all about experience that I once had.
