Gayla Peevey - Got a Cold in Node for Christmas free for downloading

Bob Merrill wrote numerous novelty songs, but also composed the Bway musical "Carnival."

This is good.Love her hippo song,too.

Fabulous! I loved this!

thanks for the post i luv it

Yep, got a cold in the node for Christmas too. Thank goodness for bourbon and tea :-)

Oops, I said Gloria... I meant Gayla Peevey (I have always had a problem saying "Gloria"... "Gayla" is an odd name to me).

Thank you for the reply. I remember during the summer of 1957, Gayla appeared at the Oklahoma Semi-Centennial celebration, and "Too Young To Have a Broken Heart" was her newest record so she was probably 14.

Thank you so much for posting this! What a blast from my past! My sisters and I had these records as kids growing up in the 60's. We also had 'I Wand a Hippopotamus for Christmas' and 'Are My Ears on Straight?.

Her vocal quality really comes out in this one more than Hippo.

I wish someone would put "Too Young To Have a Broken Heart," which Gayla recorded at about age 13 or 14.

Adorable

Dose anyone know where to get the lyrics to the song, "Got a Cold in the node for Christmas"? I can't find it anywhere on the net.

Gayla Peevey's songs, especially I Want a Hippopotamus and Are My Ears On Straight? bring back so many happy memories. I visit here often just to get that bit of innocent happiness going again. Thanks a million for this.

Thank you for posting this. I have all my mother's old "unbreakable" Jimmy Boyd and Gloria Peevey records and I used to listen to them all the time when I was little. Now my record player just "skims" everything without playing anything. Thanks to you I can share this with my child.

So adorable and funny
