In the episode of "I Love Lucy" titled 'Lucy and Ethel Buy The Same Dress', Lucy and Ethel perform a song together on live television.
Ironically, Lucille Ball had already "sung" (she was dubbed) the SAME EXACT SONG in a screen version of a Cole Porter Broadway Musical.
What song am I thinking of?
GOOD LUCK, Everybody!!!

"I hope you're all happy, keeping Alan off the team. Couldn't you, for once, open your minds and hearts and hear something that he couldn't see? I, for one, am glad that Alan is blind, so he can't see what, I am so sad to say, you can't hear." -Jerri Blank

"Friendship":
Judy:
If you're ever in a jam, here I am
Johnny:
If you're ever in a mess, S.O.S.
Judy:
If you ever feel so happy you land in jail, I'm your bail
Both:
It's friendship, friendship
Just a perfect blendship
When other friendships have been forgot
Ours will still be hot
Judy:
A-lottle-dottle-dottle-dig-dig-dig
Johnny:
If you're ever down a well, ring my bell
Judy:
And if you're ever up a tree just phone to me
Johnny:
A-yes-sir-ee
If you ever lose your teeth and you're out to dine, borrow mine
Both:
It's friendship, friendship
Just a perfect blendship
When other friendships have been forgate
Johnny:
Gate?
Both:
Ours will still be great!
Johnny:
A-lottle-dottle-dottle-chuck-chuck-chuck
Judy:
If they ever black your eyes, put me wise
Johnny:
If they ever cook your goose, turn me loose
Judy:
And if they ever put a bullet through your brain, I'll complain
Both:
It's friendship, friendship
Just a perfect blendship
When other friendships have been forgit
Ours will still be it
Judy:
A-lottle-dottle-dottle-hep-hep-hep
Johnny:
If you ever lose your mind, I'll be kind
Judy:
And if you ever lose your shirt, I'll be hurt
Johnny:
If you're ever in a mill and get sawed in half, I won't laugh
Both:
It's friendship, friendship
Just a perfect blendship
When other friendships are up the crick
Ours will still be slick!

Posted: 4/1/05 at 3:13amNo need to call him Jesus. He sometimes responds to Mary_Ethel, or Sir. Master, if you're feeling particularly respectful.
