Aren't there more ceramic yard madonnas per square mile in Somerville than in any other city in America? This is gonna take him forever.

I lived for two years in Catholictown, Iowa (i.e. Dubuque), and the local theatre troupe was doing a retrospective which involved the song "Bathtub Mary", sung to the tune of "Plastic Jesus":

Bathtub Mary
Bathtub Mary
Sittin' near my front porch on my lawn
I don't care if I'm fat and hairy
Long as I got my bathtub Mary
Sittin' near my front porch on my lawn!

I don't remember the rest of the words, for which I'm sure you are all grateful.

Here are the eight that I've found.
This one is my favorite, because you can actually see the ghost of the madonna that was once there.
