My parents insist that when I was barely leaving toddler-hood, I knew all the words to this song and loved singing it. Very possibly because I was called Danny. Though also possibly because I was an idiot savant. It's really a coin flip.
But I doubt I sang it like this. Because no one ever has. Good golly, what Roy does to a song that cannot possibly be made any better...well...it turns out it can be.
