"Ding Dong, the Witch is Dead" by The Munchkins, Billie Burke, and Judy Garland
Better Lyrics:
Roll away your stone. I'll roll away mine.
Original Lyrics:
Ding-dong! The Witch is dead
Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch!
Ding-dong! The Wicked Witch is dead
Wake up, you sleepy head
Rub your eyes, get out of bed
Wake up, the Wicked Witch is dead
She's gone where the goblins go
Below, below, below
Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out
Ding-dong, the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low
Let them know the Wicked Witch is dead!
Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch!
Ding-dong! The Wicked Witch is dead
Wake up, you sleepy head
Rub your eyes, get out of bed
Wake up, the Wicked Witch is dead
She's gone where the goblins go
Below, below, below
Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out
Ding-dong, the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low
Let them know the Wicked Witch is dead!

Tennessee Ernie Ford
Male solo singer. His name was Ernest Ford, and he was born and raised in Tennessee. But before his singing career took off, for several years he worked as a radio deejay and announcer at various radio stations. At one of them, he created an on air personality and just called himself "Tennessee Ernie", and he became quite popular with the public. So after a while it just stuck. And he decided to use Tennessee as part of his name for the rest of his life and he was known forever after as Tennessee Ernie Ford to the public. Although he never legally added Tennessee to his name, he was always known as Ernie to his friends. Submitted by: Edward
