Umpy Noises
I was just out with my three-year-old, and
one of the songs we listened to in the car was “What Shall We Do With The
Drunken Sailor” as sung by Leonard Warren, an opera singer of the 1950’s
(he died young, poor fellow). Later, while we were walking through a
store I heard James singing to himself: “Yo, Ho, and Umpy Noises, Yo,
Ho, and Umpy Noises, Yo, Ho, and Umpy Noises, Early in the Morning.”
