Thread Name: Milko TV jingle
Subject: Milko TV jingle
Does anyone have the full lyrics to the TV jingle for Milko? The commercial began with a little girl skipping along a sidewalk to the accompaniment of two bars of some skipping music, when she encounters a cow, and the conversation goes in speech-song to the music as follows:

GIRL: How now, brown cow, what's new with you?

COW: What's new, you ask - well, can I moo!
It's MMMilko! MMMilko! Instant new flavored MMMilko!

GIRL: You say it's new and tasty, too?

COW: That's right, little girl, and it's good for you.

[There follows more, and the ditty ends with:]

BOTH IN HARMONY: Make it by the pitcher or make it by the glass -
But make mine with Mil-ko!

We kids loved this commercial. Anyone got the rest?
