REQ: 40's Tune -- Buckle Down Winsockie

[Debra Cooper]

Oh, oh, ow, ooh, my aunt used to sing that around the house, we thought
it was "you can win win hockey"...

Listen, do either of you have Ink Spots, or Bob Wills?

I'll Get By -- The Ink Spots
I'll get by, as long as I have you
Though there be rain, I'll not complain
As long as I have you

My Shadow, My Echo, and Me -- The Ink Spots

Bimbo -- Bob Wills
Bimbo, Bimbo, where ya gonna go-ee-oh?
Bimbo, Bimbo, whatcha gonna do-ee-oh?
Bimbo, Bimbo, does yer Mommy know
You're goin' down the road to see yer little girlie-oh?

Roly-Poly -- Bob Wills
Roly-Poly, Daddy's little fatty,
Bet he's gonna be a man someday
He can eat an apple pie and never even bat an eye
He works up an appetite that way

That's all I remember. Grandmother used to have these STEEL records,
which she let us play on her old windup Victrola...
