Tuning:
Here's my interpretation of the Indigo Girls' version of Rand
Bishop's "Wild, Wild Party In The Loquat Tree." For your
reference, this song can be found on Put_On_Your_Green_Shoes,
(Sony Kids Music, 1993). For the a cappella section near the
end, I have written out the lyrics for both Amy's and Emily's
parts. If you spot any errors please let me know. Thanks and
enjoy.
