Subject: RE: Lyr Req: What is this? From: skipy Date: 05 Mar 07 - 04:47 AM My dear Scrump, if it was a "pop" it would not be in my head! Another possible phrase is:- in the daylight Skipy |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: What is this? From: Scrump Date: 05 Mar 07 - 04:33 AM Is it a folk song, a pop song, or what? It might help to know what kind of song it is, where/when you heard it, etc. Any idea of the date (1960s, 70s...?) |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: What is this? From: Peace Date: 04 Mar 07 - 11:47 PM OK. So, in reality, and just between you and us, I don't think it's Fiddler on the Roof. More like Mairzy Doats. Work with us on this: MAIRZY DOATS Merry Macs - words and music by Milton Drake, AI Hoffman and Jerry Livingston - featured by George Olsen and his Orchestra I know a ditty nutty as a fruitcake Goofy as a goon and silly as a loon Some call it pretty, others call it crazy But they all sing this tune: Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you? Yes! Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you? If the words sound queer and funny to your ear, a little bit jumbled and jivey Sing "Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy" Oh! Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you-oo? A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you? |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: What is this? From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 04 Mar 07 - 09:29 PM "team of experts" I suspect that the discussions on Can you identify this tune? may assist. But I personally think that the song is "What is this thing called, Love?" |
