[Dixielandjazz] Woolworth's "Cuisine"

[Don Ingle]

Gibberish lyrics -- frim fram sauce, etc.
But you can hear it done anew today by the Canadian
singer/pianist Diana Krall,who has a guitar/bass/piano trio along the lines
of the old Nat Cole on many tunes and she recorded it. She also does "Peel
me a grape" enough to make you forget the original Eartha Kit version.
