I remember the taste of the wooden spoon more than the ice cream.
Does anyone but me remember the old song played around 1961..."On the bank of the river stood Running Bear and on the other side of the river stood a lovely Indian maid..Little White dove was her name ooga ooga etc? If you remember you're too old.
telephones did not have dials
1969 Sonny James
Actually, much earlier, like in 1959. Song was written by Jiles Perry Richardson, otherwise known as The Big Bopper. The most famous singer of the song was Johnny Preston in 1959. Richardson was killed in the same plane crash with Buddy Holly and Richie Valens. The song came out after Richardson's death.
Running Bear
There stands the glass...
The song is older than I am, but my dad used to sing it all the time

RUNNING BEAR - 17/03/1960
2 weeks at #1 - 16 weeks on chart
On the bank of the river
Stood Runnin' Bear, young Indian brave
On the other side of the river
Stood his lovely Indian maid
Little White Dove was-a her name
Such a lovely sight to see
But their tribes fought with each other
So their love could never be
Runnin' Bear loved Little White Dove
With a love big as the sky
Runnin' Bear loved Little White Dove
With a love that couldn't die
Have you ever seen a grown man Naked?
