bawdy songs
Lewd musical numbers
Bawdy songs are humorous songs with sexually suggestive or obscene lyrics, often featuring double entendres and crude humor.
They're associated with drinking, sailors, rugby clubs, and other rowdy gatherings where inhibitions loosen: The pub crowd belted out bawdy songs until closing time.
Many folk traditions preserve bawdy songs that respectable songbooks omit.
