Probably what the 'Country singer Roger Miller' was humming
in his mind in the 1940's when he spent summers in his uncle & Aunt's house in Cauthron AR. (one of his tunes that came later)
His Uncle was named Emmitt, & his Aunt was Hattie Miller, they ran a little country store for years.
I was in the store lots of times, there was a little wood stove, with feed stacked in the back, & pop, & candy, & supplies,the men would all gather around & talk about politics & the weather, although I came along much later than Roger, & never met him.
Emmett said he attended a couple of Roger's concerts, but he didn't own any of his records.
Sadly Roger never attended their funerals when they passed on.
(pic's are town sign, homeplace, store, the sign has swung upside down, but you can make out 'MIL, (it read Millers store),
old school house.
