My family watched The Whistling Wizard on our black and white T.V. set in the East San Francisco Bay Area in 1951, when I was 3 or 4 years old. I remember most of the song and the Little Golden Book turned up a little while ago, so I thought I'd share it with others who enjoyed the show but maybe don't remember much anymore either.
The Theme Song:
| Verse 1 | Verse 2 | Verse 3 |
|
Come and have some fun. Come and join the Whistling Wizard. He takes everyone To the land of make believe. With his magic flute He can whistle up a blizzard. When you hear him toot All the troubles hide away. |
J.P.: He tells corny jokes Which he thinks are very funny, But I like it, folks, When old Heathcliff's here with me. Heathcliff: He's got great big ears And his disposition's sunny. I'll go through the years With my little pal J.P. |
Spider Lady: When I cast my spell Then you know there's trouble brewing, And that all's not well, For my magic reaches far. Kohlrabi: (?? If you know this line email me: glystad at centurytel dot net, subject: Kohlrabi.) Like a moo-cow I am mooing. Like a bull I'm strong When I'm playing my queen's hand. |
