Subject: RE: Lyr Req: What it wus wus football
Wahoo! My Aunt Corrine used to have that on a 78-rpm record when I was a kid – I think it filled both sides. That and several Spike Jones records. I always wanted to play one of them whenever I visited her house.

By the way, I believe on the record label he was called "Deacon Andy Griffith." And didn't he do at least one other comedy record along the same lines? That is, a naïve country bumpkin comes to the city and misunderstands everything he sees. If so, my aunt didn't have that one, so I don't recall the title or topic, but I'm pretty sure one exists.
