Reminds me of one of my faves, Hoagy Carmichael's 'Huggin' and Chalkin':
"I got a gal who's mighty sweet Big blue eyes and tiny feet Her name is Rosabelle Magee And she tips the scales at three-oh-three
Oh, gee, but ain't it grand to have a gal so big and fat That when you go to hug her, you don't know where you're at You have to take a piece of chalk in your hand And hug a ways and chalk a mark to see where you began
One day I was a-huggin' and a-chalkin' and a-chalkin' and a-huggin' away When I met another fella with some chalk in his hand A-comin' around the other way over the mountain A-comin' around the other way."
Mr 5 x 5 was a great tune by Ella Mae Morse from 1942. It would be a perfect anthem for Gov, Doublewide.
