song from 1940's

[Ve-Ve]

I can only remember one bit it's near the end of the song--------  "in Tallahassee the capital city of Florida in the south Atlantic state"

[madjack]

possibly "Pensalvania 65000" by the Glen Miller orchestra ??????????

[Narolines]

That rings a bell - I've got a feeling I can mentally hear The Andrews Sisters singing it.  I'll have to go and dig out all my old vinyl and see if I can find it - don't wait up tonight!

[Narolines]

Funnily enough I put my hand on it almost immediately!  It's actually called "Tallahassee", written by Frank Loesser and recorded by Bing Crosby & THe Andrews Sisters in 1947.  There are no doubt other recordings of it around, too..
