Now me and my mate were back at the shackWe had Spike Jones on the boxShe said, "I can't take the way he singsBut I love to hear him talk"Now that just gave my heart a fallTo the bottom of my feetAnd I swore as I took another pourMy Bessie can't be beat:)
Spike was a genius; i used to listen to this song when i was a kid, it was on a compilation album my folks owned, great songs of the 40's, 50's etc; i loved this song, also Vaughn Monroe's "Ghost Riders in the Sky"; nice memories.
