If you remember this hit, you're starting to get old.

Not really. Just the by product of what happens when you combine a stream of consciousness moment with an internet browser and search engine.

I couldn't find video on Youtube, but here are the lyrics of the Allan Sherman and Homer & Jethro parodies, respectively:

No more-a my dough,
No more-a my dough,
No more-a my dough-de-o-dough.
Westchester Hadassah,
I gave all my dough.
I'll give you one more thing:
A definite "no!"
Remember that luncheon
In honor of me?
You made me contribute
Anonymously.
Remember last year
When you gave a masquerade ball?
I came as a turnip
Just to see you try to squeeze my blood and all.
Westchester Hadassah,
I'm trying my best.
Enclosed is one dollar,
I'll owe you the rest.
No more-a my dough,
No more-a my dough,
No more-a my dough-de-o-dough.
Remember that raffle
When you held your monster bazaar?
I bought all the tickets,
All but one, and that was the one that won the car!
Westchester Hadassah,
How wrong can you be?
I'm not even Jewish.
Stop pestering me!
No more-a my dough,
No more-a my dough,
No more-a my dough-de-o-dough.



Winchester Cathedral--You're drivin' me mad
I don't know who sings it--But it's mighty sad
I'll really be glad when--This song disappears
It's set music back now--At least fifty years.

Now everyone knows--Just how much we needed a hit
And now that it's done all I say--I hope that the world is ready for it (two, three, four, NOW)
Winchester Cathedral--You're doin' me dirt
They finally wrote one--That we couldn't hurt.

From old London town came this song--There ain't any doubt
This English import--Believe me I know that we'll go on livin' without--
Winchester Cathedral--By now you have died
Tho' we didn't kill you--We certainly tried.

Bo-do-dee-o-do, Bo-do-dee-o-do, Bo-do-dee-o-do, dee-o-do.

I love Allen Sherman. I remember him being a big hit with my parents and their friend when I was a kid.

Thanks for the "new stuff"!
