Loddy Lo - Chubby Checker

Loddy Lo - Chubby Checker
2:11
Chubby's Folk Album, 1963
Written by Kal Mann & Dave Appell 

Short and sweet verses, with a lot of the singalong chorus, "Hey Loddy, Loddy Lo."  Apparently written for Checkers' wife.  Handclaps and a bumping beat make this an infectious, if slight, tune.  Chubby wasn't known for his deep, eloquent lyrics. "Fancy talk is for the birds / A kiss is worth a thousand words."  It's a fun '50s style party song akin to "The Twist."
