Lighter the something and the maid (24) RE: the something and the maid 24 Sep 23

I associate that sort of brassy "I really mean it!" buildup with Ethel Merman, though I can't name a specific song.

Of course others have used it since - and possibly before.

The Library of Congress seems to have no copyright record of a song called "The Farmer and the Maiden."

"Cadet," btw, is often pronounced "kAY-det."
