Now THAT is Canadiana! In the backseat of our Valiant, on the way home down from Regina to Estevan after a day of shopping in 1965, and Dad cranking up the radio, so we could all sing along with Hal Willis and his cheerful lumberjack!
I tell you Hal makes the best spaghetti in the world.Don Lite and I visited him at his home in Tennessee ,Ginger was there at that time and I'll never forget that spaghetti and of course "The lumberjack Song" Ha ha.
Hi Hal it's me paul Henry Dallaire from Timmins ON Canada
Didily,Didily,Didily,Didily,.Didily,Didily,Didily,Didily,;KIng of all the croppers!
Didily,Didily,Didily,Didily,.Didily,Didily,Didily,Didily,;Climbs all day and never gets a (...-er?) Knopper the topper the king of all the croppers;Wasn't very big but he sure was a wiley when he walked!..."Such wonderful Canadiana music heavily in lumber-jack man song, french Canadian. Or how about When it's Springtime in Alaska it's Forty-below!HalWillisCanadiana.
Loved the song especially the album for over 4 decades now!
Knopper the Topper is a fav as well the entire album, really!
I just love the way the photos accompany the music-and such gems they are esp the young violinist beauty...so breathtaking, as I love this...would appreciate meeting Mr.Lumberjackman! Hal Willis!
I've been tryin' to find this song for decades!! Only line i remembered was "sittin' on a tree stump eatin' johnny cake" so after decades of remembering this gem cracklin' out of the ol' RCA hi-fi my dad had,,,,,,,I've finally found it. The net is good for something after all! sounds as great as my 5 year old self remebers it to be! fantastic tune and props to y'all lumberjack men!
I wonder if I am related somehow to this guy? I'm hoping that I'm related to Bruce Willis!!!!!
