Or your Mother, even. It's just MY Mother wasn't EVER gonna sing anything. Dad, on the other hand. . . .

Well, he didn't exactly take after HIS Father, the song and dance man who was the very defintion of the Bohemian 'Work hard, play HARDER' ethic, but Dad could be heard to bust loose sometimes.

I remember he thought Desi Arnaz sang this in a movie. Turns out it's from a movie starring Lucille Ball, 'Best Foot Forward.' But no Desi. Quite the supporting cast though, including one of my favorite NAMES, Chill Wills.

Buckle down, Winsocki

Buckle down, Winsocki
Buckle down
You can win, Winsocki
If you knuckle down
If you break their necks
If you make them wrecks
You can break the hex,
So buckle down,
Make 'em yell Winsocki, make 'em yell.
You can win, Winsocki
If you give 'em hell
It you don't give in take it on the chin
You are bound to win, it you will only buckle down,
If you fight you'll chuckle at defeat.
If you fight your luck'll not retreat
(Shout)
Knuckle down Winsocki
Knuckle down.
You can win, Winsocki
If you buckle down
If you mow them down
If you go to town
You can wear the crown
If you will only buckle down.
