Fuzzy Wuzzy was written by Al Hoffman, Milton Drake & Jerry Livingston, mid 40s, I'd say. I can remember only a few other snippets. They say that all the seals in Hudson Bay can't beat Fuzzy's fuzz. ***** Fuzzy Wuzzy lost his crop in a North Pole barber shop ***** But when they took his fuzz away, he wasn't what he usta was. That's about all I can come up with ~~ it's been quite a long time since I heard it. I just found mention of a recording by Al Trace, National 7011,circa 1944. No doubt there were others as well. Do a search for Jerry Livingston and you'll find that he wrote many songs you have heard. The Unbirthday Song, Wake the Town and Tell the People, The Twelfth of Never ~~ just to name a few. Oh, and the classic Mairzy Doats! Here is his entry at the Songwriter's Hall Of Fame http://www.songwritershalloffame.org/exhibit_bio.asp?exhibitId=299
