    I find it fascinating that in the 50's and 60's we had no Internet and limited phone access, yet any kid in this entire country who watched Popeye knew those two sets of alternate lyrics LMAO

    Yes! Also:

    I'm Popeye the sailor man,
    I live in a garbage can,
    I eat all the worms,
    And spit out the germs!
    I'm Popeye the sailor man, boop boop!

    Holy smokes, what we remember from a fun and misspent youth, LMAO! Oh no - more goofy stuff popping into my head, LOL!

    Hey Dino, some of the songs we sang would probably be banned today! And the one I remember about the Crocket song that us kids all used to laugh at would not be able to be uttered today....

    Back then, if there was an issue, all it resulted in would have been a mouth washed out with soap. Now - no telling what the price would be! But might be fun to see the grins on the people that would remember their younger days.

    Too True, Katrinam - too true.

    Sometimes trying to hang onto the joy - is difficult, but I am always trying!

    You are all triggering so many memories with these posts. Francis Marion the Swamp Fox, Eh Chico, Eh Cisco, Hopalong, Sky King, Fury, Rin Tin Tin, Captain Kangaroo, Howdy and Buffalo Bob, Midnight the cat and Andy Devine, they just don't stop. How innocent and joyful, full of beans and unstoppable we were. No longer innocent, but the joy, beans and unstoppable are still part of us.

    I now recall hearing as a kid a different mockery of the Disney Crocket theme song repeated in Dothan, Alabama, but can no longer remember how it went.
    But just awakened in my memory is~~
    I'm Popeye the sailor man.
    I live in a garbage can.
    I always go swimmin' with bowlegged women.
    I'm Popeye the sailor man.
    Reading what I just wrote above~~That's just something stupid little kids would laugh at least the first time. Quite sure I must have because I picked it up and went around repeating it.
    Loved those old Popeye beat 'em up cartoons and a Warner Brothers character like Bugs handing Elmer Fudd a stupidly staring at it lit stick of dynamite. Too violent me the dino recalls complaints.

    Agreed about the word gay, which is now forever tainted. The word was a happy word. I grew up with a good friend with the last name Gay before the word was so terribly "repurposed". The famous fighter pilot who was shot down and rescued during the battle of Midway was George Gay and then there's the Enola Gay...

    I liked the Texas John Slaughter series, too!

    We used to mock the theme from Davy Crockett (Fess Parker series), which I also really liked:

    Born on a mountaintop in Tennessee,
    Cutest little baby you ever did see,
    Shot the nurse, killed the doctor,
    escaped from prison in a helicopter!
    Davy! Davy Crockett! King of the wild frontier!

    Ancient memory just got triggered. Way back when as a little kid there's a Disney character with a song I used to mock the hell out of. You know, in a little kid's kinda way.
    First, here's the song~~https://www.bing.com/search?q=texas+j...
    Now here's my mocking version. To wit, "Texas John Slaughter made 'em do as they oughta for if they didn't they died. (Then I'd scream). THEY DIED! THEY DIED! FOR IF THEY DIDN'T THEY DIED! BWAHAHA! KILL! KILL! KILL THEM ALL! MAKE 'EM ALL DIE! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!"
    Oh, and another thing. During World War 2, General Patton made sure to tell news people that his two Colt 45 handles were made of ivory.
    He said only queers would use pearl-handled revolvers. Homosexuals began to call themselves gay when I~~born during 1947~~was old enough to read a newspaper editorial bemoaning how the new use of "gay" slighted volumes and volumes of fine poetry previously written.

    Smilin', dino!

    Lots of oldies are fun songs. Do "they" make fun songs anymore? Recall Flying Purple People Eater, Yellow Polka Dot Bikini and some others.

    I am also just 6.4 years from 80. The America I grew up in has been buried under so much s!*t that it's nearly vanished. Common sense must win if this nation is to survive. With you all the way, dear dino.
