_ [Bb] Thank [N] you, Tommy.
Fantastic.
That goes way back to 1944, remember?
Yes, it sure did.
That's going a long way back.
That's when you were a teenager, wasn't it, Ernest?
Yeah, about like Tinker Toad, but Ernest [G] Jr.
We intended to get [Ab] Ernest Jr.,
little Tinker, to come in and visit [Eb] with us today, but I don't believe scale's big enough for him.
No, he said the [Bb] scale was a little off.
You're not going to work like that.
You really did that song fine, Ernest.
In fact, I don't know if many can sing them like that.
Thank you, Tommy.
