A quick Google on the line takes us back to 2003 when the same question was asked and answered on DJML:

don't know if that is 100% correct, but seems as plausible as any other idea ;-)

Hi All

Driving home tonight from taking part in the annual Oxfam Stomp in 
Birmingham - UK not Alabama  :) - I decided to keep the mood going and put 
Turk Murphy at Heidelburg Jazz Festival on the car stereo.  One of the 
numbers is Evolution Mama and it suddenly struck me that I haven't got the 
faintest idea what the line

"But some sweet day I'm going to take dead aim and knock that peanut whistle 
right off your stand"

means. I'm hoping that some of the US members of the list can enlighten me.

Regards
Keith Garner
