Here is a song I sent to my BHM along with my little flirtations. In case any of you may not have seen my slip up of naming him, watch this thread closely and he may "tip his hand"????
To my Corpulent King,
Here's a really fun song from 1942 that I heard on the radio this a.m.! Sure made me think of you, my Porkulent Prince! Do you wanna try for Mr. Six by Six? Only have 8 more inches to go, my large lover! You are quite plump on your 'butter side'??!!
YWL wants to kiss you all over! I missed a few spots last time, I am sure! Let's find out which is your "butter side"!!! I might just have to eat you up!:smitten:

Ella Mae Morse Mr. Five By Five Lyrics:
[Saxophone intro.]
Well, twirl my turban, man alive!
Here come Mr. Five by Five.
He's one of those big fat bouncing boys,
Solid avoirdupois! (that's French for "excess weight")
Mr. Five by Five,
He's five feet tall and he's five feet wide.
He don't measure no more from head to toe,
Than he do from side to side.
Mr. Five by Five,
Got fifty chins and a line of jive.
He's a mellow old cat, a real hep fat,
He be Mr. Five by Five.
That man can really jump it for a fat man.
The only trouble is there's no way of knowin',
Whether he's comin' on or goin'.
Mr. Five by Five.
He's slightly plump on his butter side.
He don't shake it no more from head to toe,
Than he do from side to side.

[Freddy Slack:]
That man (my, my), can really jump it for a fat man (fat man).
Boys, the trouble is there's no way of knowin',
[Ella Mae:]
Whether he's comin' on or goin'.
Mr. Five by Five,
He's five feet tall and he's five feet wide.
He don't measure no more from head to toe,
Than he do from side to side.
Mr. Five by Five.

[Written by: Don Raye & Gene DePaul-1944
Performed by: Ella Mae Morse with Freddy Slack & His Orchestra
Appears on: Capitol Collectors Series-1992 [2] , Barrelhouse, Boogie & Blues
(Various Artists)-1997, Morse Code-2005, et al.]
[1] Mr. Five by Five (from 1944) was a very popular song that celebrates the
heavyset, large, and plus-sized souls among us. The person of substance
highlighted by the song was James Andrew Rushing, "Mr. Five by Five," who
was the featured vocalist of Count Basie's Orchestra from 1935 to 1948. The
song was featured in the motion pictures, "Behind the Eight Ball
" and "Who Done It?," both of which were 1942 Universal Pictures releases. Ella Mae Morse with Freddie Slack and His Orchestra had a hit recording with the song in 1942, as did Harry James and His Orchestra.]
