Of course, after 1955 the phrase meant something quite different but I better not go into that on here.

Remember this one by the Muppets? It was based on a recording that was the B side of the record with TSOP (The Sounds of Philadelphia) on the A side.

I just thought that was a saying my parents used to say. I had no idea it was a song. Thanks for posting. I learned something new.

It is a number of songs. There's another one by Chuck Berry.
