Cool Where Did This Oldie Lyric Come From

I was just watching TV and the Gary Wilmot said his father spoke the lyrics ‘I am a mole and I live in a hole’ I remember them lyrics but I cannot think of the song that went with it, what was the song and who sang it?

I still have that single somewhere !!!!!!

I've got a vague feeling it might be the "flight of the bumble bee".

Talking of unusual collections anyone got anything by Stan Feberg
"sh-boom" !!!!

No its not Flight of the Bumble Bee, I know that one it is usually played on the trumpet. The one I’m after is a proper piece for the piano (although the rest of it may be orchestrated ( no not cas******ed)).

I just found this this anybody else remember Tubby the Tuba, The Laughing Policeman, The Owl and the Pussy Cat and wasn’t there one Bully Goats Gruff?

John I found a snippet here http://www.wecollect2.com/Sparky's%20Magic%20Piano.htm to play but it has no music, and the piano says it can play it self.

You will have to cut and past that web address.
