Story about this misheard lyric by: Wayne

One night when I was about 7, I asked my father to play "The Wilma Song". We spent hours searching through his collection of records for a song with "Wilma" on it. We called a local radio station. Because the DJ didn't know what it was, he asked for people to call in if they knew what it could be. Eventually, my father worked out what the song was and called the radio station back. The DJ agreed that it did sound like "Wilma", and played it for me.
