I've arrived home after finals, and was showing my mom the 'Cat. She immediately suggested that I post a request for the words to a spoken routine which she remembers from Cleveland in the 1950's.
"Christopher Cucumber was sailing down the Missisloppy River
Holding a star-spangled banana"
. . .
ending with
"And if you don't believe me, ask the blind man; he saw it all."
Anybody recognize this? Have more words to it?


Chocolate Pi (very happy to be home)

Here (click) is a version of that.

I vaguely recall a version that also contained:
"And Mrs. Trombone will play her bongos."
