Yes. Let's make sure Uncle Kenny really won.

Please post the lyrics now that our interest has been piqued. And I'm not sure I saw how you thought Consuelo 'cheated', but I guess I saw the quest as using the internet to find the lyrics, not just googling. And using the internet includes having access to all of our minds and resources. That seemed legitimate to me. :)

And what was that pre-Raelian thing that our fallible friend had going on a few posts ago? I do like the sentiment:

"for the forseeable future we're always going to need people with experience and understanding to tie it together." ff

Such a reassuring concept, at least for the forseeable future...

Indeed. I don't see that we've uncovered any evidence that the song even exists, in cyber space or brick and mortar. Uncle Kenny can hardly expect the web to have the complete lyrics to a figment of his imagination.

That's right, dear Faldage. A new alliance has been forged in honor of this board. And, while I fear I have a lot more in common with Uncle Kenny, than our Milum, I do think this challenge has not yet concluded.

And JFTR, every album and anthology ever recorde by The Mills Brothers is listed on Allmusic.com, complete with their respective song lists. I clicked through them all and no Boy...Two Little Shoes. So I'll bet it was never recorded. Or mebbe they wrote it for somebody else and never recorded it themselves.

I think Uncle Kenny has some fessin' up to do!
