Anybody remember the late DJ Ray Moor, He used to have a saying Oh my father had a rabbit and he thought it was a duck. so he stuck it on the table with it's legs cocked up. it won a silver medal & it won a silver cup for sitting on the table with it's legs cocked up. There's more but can't remember it. Anybody help? Brian |

Brian, that's going to annoy me now because my mum used to love listening to him doing that one! I'll try to remember to ask her tomorrow, if nobody comes up with it in the meantime. Mandy :) |

I remember Ray, Brian, he's the one who died of throat cancer, isn't he? But sorry, don't remember that verse! Glenys. |

here's one alternative .... Shake It Up And Go You might be old, about 90 years But you ain't too old to shift them gears You can shake it up and go (Shake it up and go) Shake it up and go (Shake it up and go) You good-looking people sure can shake it up and go Mama killed a chicken, she thought it was a duck She put it on the table with his legs sticking up She had to shake it up and go (Shake it up and go) Shake it up and go (Shake it up and go) You good-looking people sure got to shake it up and go I told my baby the week before last The gait she had was just a little too fast She had to shake it up and go (Shake it up and go) Shake it up and go (Shake it up and go) You good-looking people sure got to shake it up and go Look here baby, you ain't treating me right You go out everyday, stay out late at night You got to shake it up and go, baby (Shake it up and go) You got to shake it up and go (Shake it up and go) You good-looking people sure got to shake it up and go there are quite a few that come up if you google "chicken thought it was a duck" - beware though, some are roooood!!!

Brian, I loved ray Moor, he was always so funny and so relaxed. And I think he was oneof the first celebrities to be open about the fact that he'd got cancer. I can remember him quoting the verse, but not sure that there was ever any more than what you have written here. I have both his books written with his wife Alma. Tomorrow is Too late and Tomorrow who knows. His deathw as so sad. At the frony of Tomorrow Who knows is a verse. For Ray from Alma Well I know someday This precious life will have to end, But i want you to know It was oh so very good, my friend. And though the magic may all fade away We will live and love today, For tomorrow -- who knows? Yes tomorrow -- who Knows? I wonder where Alma is now, he died in 1989, goodness that is 17 years ago showing my age now Ann Glos |
