Roger Miller's, "Dang Me"
The Funny Lyrics:
They say that roses are red and violets are purple
Sugar is sweet and so is maple syrple
I'm the seventh out of a seventh son
My pappy was a pistol, I'm a son of a gun
Sugar is sweet and so is maple syrple
I'm the seventh out of a seventh son
My pappy was a pistol, I'm a son of a gun
Why They're funny:
They said that Roger Miller was on drugs when he wrote this but I sort of disagree. It's still funny 37 years later.

Roger Miller's, "My Uncle Used To Love Me, But She Died"
The Funny Lyrics:
A chicken ain't a chicken 'til it's lickin' good an' fried,
Keep on the sunny side,
My uncle used to love me, but she died.
Keep on the sunny side,
My uncle used to love me, but she died.
Why They're funny:
No, Roger Miller did not have a transvestite uncle, nor was he drunk when he penned this ditty (although he might have been trying to meet a deadline). This is merely the King of the Road at his silliest. I still laugh when I recall the time he sang this on The Muppet Show (much to the consternation of a nearby group of muppet chickens).
