How 'bout worst song titles? Two of my favorites are: "Don't hit your grandmother with a shovel, it makes a bad impression on her mind", and "I've got tears in my ears, from lying on my back in bed as I cried over you". (Honest, these are real songs!) Any others?

Back in the 50s there was a song I only heard the first line of...because after that I changed to another radio station. It began... "Throw mama from the train....a kiss,...a kiss..." I think its title was Throw Mama from the Train. --Lee Gold

How about "Rats in Your Room" circa 1964 on a Miami radio station (a black comedy along the lines of "They're Coming to take Me Away") and "Howcome Your Dog don't Byte Nobody but ME?" which my brother and I bought for 29 cents at the local 7eleven (1963). This was a serious twangy nasal C&W song. And if you thought the titles were bad........

<...Workin' for the Yanqui Dollaarrrrr > These are nowhere near the worst, but 'The Purple People Eater' and 'Why Do You Do Me Like You Do?' are funny enuf to send a posting about. On 'Fernwood Tonight' they once interviewed a C&W singer who claimed to have had wrote(sic) a song titled: If I'd-a Known that You'd-a Wanted to-a Went with Me, I'd-a Seen That You'd-a Got to Get to Go Al Algustyniak
