[Dixielandjazz] Teddy Bears Picnic

[philwilking]

As 'sung' by a small girl, it was used by "No School Today," with Big John 
and Sparky (the little elf who wants nothing so much as to be a real boy) on 
Saturday mornings. I think it originated in Cleveland. "No School Today" was 
sometimes flanked by "Smiling Ed's Gang" and "Space Patrol." They lasted 
into the very early 1950's.

Those who would exchange freedom for
