All I remember is that the words were discriptive of the instruments. The first verse was "The clarinet, the clarinet, says do-wah-do-wah-do-wah-det" The second was "The fiddles they sob it and sigh it and sing it" (or close) The song went through the whole orchestra and it ended up a round of all the verses. Clever but simple. Any chance anyone knows what I'm talking about? |
