your mother will faint, your father will fall in a bucket of paint

A3 - Ain't Goin to Goa
Mojo Nixon - Ain't Got No Boss
Clarence "Frogman" Henry - Ain't Got No Home
Mojo Nixon - Ain't High Falutin'
John Prine - Ain't Hurting Nobody
Leon Redbone - Ain't Misbehaving
Louis Jordan - Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens
Dean Martin - Ain't That a Kick in the Head

Six thousand songs on that music machine over there and only eight that start with Ain't.



WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED FROM ALL THIS?

1. You can use the word all you want if you're Mojo Nixon.
2. If you're not Mojo Nixon you can still use the word, but be sure to round it out with a double negative to really annoy the pedants.

Yay Mojo! I actually named my first cat in Georgia after him, and have had plenty of fun at his shows over the years. Remind me to tell you about the whole "Vibrator Dependent" episode some time... ;-)
