Oom, yacka, wurka
Oom, yacka, wurka
In the bad back lands of Australia
Many years ago
The aborigine tribes were meeting
Having a big pow-wow
Oom, yacka, wurka
Oom, yacka, wurka
We got a lot of trouble, Chief
On account of your son Mack
My boy Mack? Why, what's wrong with him?

#Interestingly Charlie Drake’s thing was physical comedy: pratfalls, chaos, and some wide-eyed ‘how did I survive this?’ energy that TV seems to love… That fearlessness eventually bit him on the arse: a notorious 1961 live-TV bookcase stunt that went horribly wrong... #CharlieDrake #OneHitWondered
#OneHitHistory Charlie Drake, huh? Hmmm… British comedian Charlie Drake would earn US #OneHitWonder honors in 1962 when his novelty hit “My Boomerang Won't Come Back” spent 6 weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, peaking at #21. #CharlieDrake #OneHitWondered
#Interestingly Larry Verne’s “Mr. Custer didn’t chart in the UK… Well-known British TV comedian Charlie Drake’s cover did, though. His version spent 12 weeks on the UK chart, peaking at #12. #LarryVerne #CharlieDrake #OneHitWondered
On The Other Place #CharlieDrake is trending so I'm guessing Mick Hucknall must have been on #TOTP again...

Tijd om een kijkje te nemen naar de charts in Canada. Daar stond #CharlieDrake, een Britse komiek, een weekje op 1 met 'My boomerang won't come back'. De producer was George Martin, later de producer van The Beatles.
