Gee, I can actually even make that out ...

Listening to scrape
I get the scraape scrape
Following scrape
I get the scraape

I never realized the washboard was so versatile! :boggle:

For you Walden, it might be Very Southern Métis by multiple interpretations of the label
but only if your feet are jigging while you do it.
