[Dixielandjazz] A few "notes" on whistling...Maybe Roger Miller?

[mmckay]

Roger Miller sang/wrote lines like that all the time. He was great.

My personal fav is a ditty that goes

My trousers are held up by a piece of twine
(not real polite snip)
So say you're mine, and pull that twine.

There's more, but you get the idea.

Just in passing, Yes I/we listen to that kind of music all the time (too.)
My best wife is the National President of the Ph.D.'s for Ray Stevens Fan
Club!
