Fishin' Hole - The "Andy Griffith Show" theme - by Wizard, an original arangement, in whistle. The problem is I can't stop whistling. No matter what I'm doing there is a song in my head and it comes out my lips. It annoys folks two ways - as one might suspect, the trill of shrill, a constant cornucopia of cacophony.
Or
Folks will come up to me and request "Can you whiste this tune like you did in Las Vegas?" Dude, I make 'em up as I go along - with whatever I'm doing. I couldn't remember how I whistled a tune on stage or in the shower. It's easier to whistle on stage, because when I'm doing other things the other thing occupies my attention and the tunes are just mindlessness accompaniement, but on stage it's just the one task of whistling which consumes me.
My girl called it "Bird Brain" which I take as a complement because birds accomplish an amazing amount of thought in such a miniscule space.

Fishin' Hole ==== L Y R I C S ====

Well, now, take down your fishin' pole and meet me at The Fishin' Hole,
We may not get a bite all day, but don't you rush away.

What a great place to rest your bones and mighty fine for skippin' stones,
You'll feel fresh as a lemonade, a-settin' in the shade.

Whether it's hot, whether it's cool, oh what a spot for whistlin' like a fool.

What a fine day to take a stroll and wander by The Fishin' Hole,
I can't think of a better way to pass the time o' day.

We'll have no need to call the roll when we get to The Fishin' Hole,
There'll be you, me, and Old Dog Trey, to doodle time away.

If we don't hook a perch or bass, we'll cool our toes in dewy grass,
Or else pull up a weed to chaw, and maybe set and jaw.

Hangin' around, takin' our ease, watchin' that hound a-scratchin' at his fleas.

Come on, take down your fishin' pole and meet me at The Fishin' Hole,
I can't think of a better way to pass the time o' day.
======
