Happy Birthday!

Radio evangelist Billy Sunday
born 11/19/1863
(d1935)

          Billy Sunday was a preacher
          His church is always full
          The neighbors gather from miles around
          Just to hear him shoot the bull
                  Oh, there ain't no bugs on me
          There ain't no bugs on me
          There may be bugs on some of you mugs
          But there ain't no bugs on me
  
                  "There Ain't No Bugs On Me," assembled by Fiddlin' John Carson, 
                  earliest date: 1928 (per Ballad Index); DigTrad filename[ AINTNOBG 
  
          AND:
          Chicago, Chicago, that toddlin' town
          Chicago, Chicago, I will show you around - I love it
          Bet your bottom dollar you'll lose the blues in Chicago
          Chicago, the town that Billy Sunday couldn't shut down
  
                  "Chicago" by Fred Fisher
  
  ALSO:
  "The Last Shantyman," Stan Hugill was born 11/19/1906 (d5/13/1992)
