Few folk duos could set toes a-tapping like Spike and Ike, the Ukelele Brothers, whose rousing hit “Flea-Scratchin’ Man” made them the toast of the Greenwich Village coffeehouse scene.

I want video. This is glorious.
I was really hoping it was a video…
We can see which one was the heart throb.
Got a nasty itch / Hurts like a son of a gun… Hummm I have a feeling that those are the family friendly and not the original lyrics, the rhyme is not quite right. LOL!
Got a nasty itch
Hurts like a son of a gun
Lord it makes me twitch
Like a frog in the noonday sun
Cain’t ya hear me sing
The song of my people so gaily
As I twang and twing
On my totally fake ukulele
By Pug Seeger
LOL I don’t think Pete Seeger ever wrote anything this good.
Well, he did write “Waist Deep in the Big Muddy and the Big Fool Says to Push On “ but I get your point. (Oooo, an unintended pun!)😁
To say nothing of “If I Had a Hammer”; “Turn! Turn! Turn!”; and “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?” but I appreciate the sentiment. ☺️
