Ticklish Reuben

Ticklish Reuben

"Ticklish Reuben" is a folk song written by Cal Stewart in 1900. Released on the Victor Label, the song is a prime example of the "laughing song" genre. Initially the tune starts off normally, then descends into an abyss of maniacal, sinister laughing.

Lyrics as follows:

"Oh",
"My name is Ticklish Reuben
" "From way down in old Vermont
""And ev'rything seems ticklish to me
"

"I've been tickled by a feather
""I've been tickled by a wasp
""I've been tickled by a yellow bumblebee
"

"I have always got a tickled sort of way about my clothes
""It doesn't really matter where I be
""I am tickled in the morning and I'm tickled in the night
""Something's always sure to tickle me
"

"hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah
""hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah"

(repeat x12)

"Once I put some pepper into Dad's snuffbox
""And the way he acted was a sight to see
""Well he coughed and he sneezed till I thought he'd have a fit
""And then he took me out to tickle me
"

"I was always getting tickled by someone about the house
""So why they take to ticklin' I could never see
""And the apple-butter paddle it is all in splinters now
""Daddy wore it out a-ticklin' me
"
