Roger Miller "Do Wacka Do"

[scdevon]

Man. He's wasted here.

[solarice42]

I love this song! This and that 'Istanbol not Constanoble' song. Raising Hope rocks!!

[WesClefflyn]

doo waka doo waka lol

[TheKotacc]

RASING HOPE!!

[caseycharle321]

what is it with these old country videos and vines growiing on a fence in the backround?! lol

[Birdman6569]

He's Fuckin Ripped. And non functional. So sad a rare instance of roger not quite picking up the cues. No one is going to forgive a performer not showing up...

[jwitt1]

What an unequivocal badass.

[DLiver420]

I'm sure that most people under 40 would think of Roger Miller as a square old country singer. They don't realize how edgy his scene was. Performances like this? "My Uncle Used to Love Me But She Died"? Roger Miller was one wild genius, for sure.

[scottree]

@DLiver420 speak for yourself dliver

[TheGamePlayaz]

"we always do a highly informal show, the higher we get the more informal we are"

[KingB12]

1:10 "the higher we get the more informal we are"? lol

[lovepeacemickey]

[13slats]

The most under rated performer ever, his repertoir is enormous.

[DazmoTube]

[WhitetailHuntress23]

[Michaeldean88]

[Dwbizbee]

[DodgeMan360]

[BenderRodrigez]

[Benj888]

Roger is my favorite country singer.

[chachingify]

[BGrosietitan]

[nursehg72]

"""the higher we get the more informal we are""" hahahahahaha

I love Roger Miller!

[Kippyan]

He looks suspiciously like Jimmy from Raising Hope.

[charleydee]

Gotta hand it to thumbs for wearing a Batman. Of course it was 1966- a high water mark for Batman.

[Perrinski1]

Raising Hope?

[pbenton48]

always the cutest when I was young. He w3as a naturel with people...

[HoWHiGHSi]

hahha the higher we are lol

[moproducer]

@HoWHiGHSi As Roger Miller said to Johnny Cash sometime in 1963: "I am the greatest authority on pill-ology. And you are too stoned to go on stage".

[HoWHiGHSi]

@moproducer thats awsome lol..i used to love pill's but now im in recovery

[moproducer]

@HoWHiGHSi Roger M. spent some time in rehab himself. He got clean from pills and booze, but never could stop chain-smoking. Lung cancer did him in.

Speaking of J. Cash, there's a story told by Bono about the members of U2 having dinner at the Cash home one evening. They were impressed that JC started the meal with an eloquent prayer of thanks.

When he finished, Cash looked up and said, "But I sure do miss the pills!"

[HoWHiGHSi]

@moproducer wow thats crazy...i guess i get what he was saying you never get over the addiction thing..you always have that little voice in the back of your head...but u gotta take it one day at a time that is what works for me..

[1rushboy]

I wish I could party with this guy

[khenessy1]

sooooooooooooo high. talkin bout swangin a caddy wit girls in the front and back. birth of rap music...HARD.

[DougieMcFresh]

[petiepab123]

I dare you to listen to this and not be in a better mood...

[Sami7685]

Hey peoplez who have found this via TV. I highly recommend looking into this Roger Miller fellow. If you liked this you can jump off with: "King of the Road," "England Swings," "Husbands & Wives," add "Hang Me."

[bobstar76]

cool batman shirt toploader!

[AshleyIsYourAmigo]

(:

[mebeburkeable]

"The higher we get, the more informal we are" Nice

[theryecatchers]

The higher we get the less formal we are

[mebeburkeable]

I watch it just for "Thumbs" Carlisle in the 1950's Batman shirt. He's awesome!!

[Yatenchik]

Raising Hope met me with that awsm song!

[GoTubeYourMom]

[beebe93]

Thumbs is rockin' that Batman T. I could listen to this song every day for the rest of my life. "This is a hot lick that everybody always enjoys." LOL.

[bushpush78]

[StephanieGrace3793]

@bushpush78 its supposed to be the cadillac's horn haha

[Mikeesligo]

The noise he makes at 1:13 haha

[gymsista1996]

[1560438]

The likes of him will probably not be seen again.He was good!

[rome128]

My grandpa used to sing this when i was a little kid good memories

[Gydinglight12]

I watched it the other night on Raising Hope--first time I had seen the show. Very funny

[lokillaZai]

How many people have listened this song on "Raising Hope"? :P

[MILWINMAR]

@lokillaZai 算我一个

[BeerMoneyLive]

[KATastrophicKidd]

@BeerMoneyLive Not me.

[bushpush78]

[slym2none]

@lokillaZai

OH HELL YEAH!!!

Best part of the video - the "highly informal" line.

2nd best - the Batman shirt on Thumbs Carlisle

[grassman9622]

@lokillaZai I have

[starfisher87]

@lokillaZai

yeh i saw the show and remembered how much i loved Roger Miller, I got tickets to see him & took my Mom & Dad, thinking they'll love it, but I was awe struck by this Man, he blew me away with his wit, playing the fiddle and guitar and this is coming from a Beatles , Hendrix to Bob Marley Fan.

[pazea8]

@lokillaZai i did!

[gemini82Q]

@lokillaZai Everyone who clicked on like :D

[Danceallnightbabe]

@lokillaZai the scene is really sweet too :)) Maw-maw:P

[TheNeonPanda12]

@lokillaZai yeah



[lilacvvine]

I can remember my grandpa singing this song when I was a kid. He sang/played it on the guitar when my mother was a kid herself too. I hadn't heard this in years, until it was played on a TV show the other night. I'm glad there's a decent video of it on here.

[GimmeADecentUsername]

Batman Fan :P ( check 0:50 )

Also try "Kansas City Star - Roger Miller" ..

[goochballz]

this is awesome
