I used to have this song many, many years ago on an Oscar Brand album "Bawdy Hootenanny". It was played so much you couldn't hear it after awhile. I don't know what ever happened to it.
Wasn't there an Oscar Brand album, Bawdy Songs of the Old West or something like that? A particular song I remember from that one was "Charolette the Harlot" (the cow puncher's whore) ...had nothing to do with the Iron Maiden song of the same name.
@wiztuck It may well have been on Bawdy Songs of the Old West but I almost wore out a friend's copy of "Bawdy Songs and Backroom Ballads," by Oscar Brand when I was a college freshman. That particular album Roll Your Leg Over, Charlotte the Harlot, and Red Wing, among others. It seems there was also a bawdy version of "Ti Yi Yippi" on the same album.
YES! I've been looking for this version forever! I'm pretty certain this is the one I heard on Doctor Demento many, many years ago. I'd found some other versions since then, of course, but they didn't have that great folk sound of this one. Then recently I found another one on here by Oscar Brand, but with different lyrics. But the voice was right, so I decided to check this one just in case it was different, and it was!!
Oscar brand has been released on cd not sure of the website

I have this album, plus volumes 2, 3, and 4. They've all been burned to CDs. This song is also on Volume 3, but with different lyrics.

@Thorwald88 You are correct. "Ti Yi Yippi" was, indeed, on that album. I may have been remembering the wrong album title.

I had this record during the 50's lost it somewhere in the south seas, thanks for reminding me of those great days.

Thank you so much for putting this on here.
