I remember in the early 70's hearing this on the radio. Us kids always got a hoot out of it because the word butt was used. lol if we only knew what was to come. It even shows a 45 record being played.

This song just came up on my disc and I had to chuckle at this line....

Artist: Goldfinger Song: "Mable".

"I heard she's going out with Charlie. She saw his package, from what I know she said 'that looks like a tube of cookie dough'. Mine she said looks like a small pencil, with broken lead."

haha

Classic Goldfinger!
