Song Information
|
"Armour Hot Dogs Song" is the jingle for Armour Brand Hot Dogs.
History[edit]
During Maggie's first birthday party, Jacqueline Bouvier recalled a song-and-dance routine Bart and Lisa had performed years earlier. At Abe Simpson's insistence, the two reluctantly reenacted it, singing the Armour Hot Dogs jingle while Abe accompanied them on harmonica. The family joined in, and Homer even walked by carrying an Armour Hot Dogs sign. Afterwards, Lisa complained that her family seemed to know only advertising songs.
Lyrics[edit]
