There used to be a cigar commercial that was a parody of a song called, I think, "Muriel." Original song contained these words: "You must have heard of Muriel, the southern belle, the lady from Virginia who's been doin' so well. How the fellas love it when she hands 'em this line: 'Why don't you pick me up and kiss me sometime?'"

Anybody know where sheet music for this song might be found? I've searched all over the web, I think, with no res

I remember one with Edie Adams for Muriel Cigars called "Big Spender" but that doesn't seem to be what you're looking for. The parody on "Big Spender" was with lines like, "Why don't you pick one up and smoke it sometime?" The sexy and sultry Edie Adams was the widow of Ernie Kovacs, early TV genius and actor.

You're right Spaw (big surprise)
"The minute you walked in the place, I could see you were..." I hated that commercial.
