I also like it because I don't care for coloreds much.
Could it be that the word in the sign is a derivation of the word negro and is obviously mispelled making WS not too well spoken? A proper spelling should be negre, but it's not like the South, the origin of the word, is well known for their understanding nor proper usage of the English language.

<center>Boy the way Glen Miller played,
songs that made the hit parade,
guys like us we had it made,
those were the days,
and you know where you were then,
girls were girls and men were men,
mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again,
didn't need no welfare states
everybody pulled his weight,
gee our old Lasalle ran great,
those were the days!</center>
