This post by Sponsoring Member author and poet as well as musician Abbie Johnson Taylor, brought back memories for me.
My dad loved this song, and sometimes when it would come on the radio while we were coming home from school we would turn it up and sing.
Mom said dad couldn’t carry a tune in two buckets tied together but I loved it when dad and I sang together.
Here’s Abbie with this memory provoking hit.
