I think this is one of the funniest commercials I’ve ever seen:
http://www.adcritic.com/content/fruit-of-the-loom-boys-hang-low.html
But, what is the line right after “Can you throw 'em over your shoulder”?
The most I can make out is “Can you throw 'em over your shoulder like a something something soldier?”
What the hell is he saying?
“Can you throw them o’er your shoulder like a Continental soldier?” is the line. Don’t ask me why.
The version of this charming ditty I remember goes:
Do your balls hang low?
Do you swing 'em to and fro?
Can you tie 'em in a knot?
Can you tie 'em in a bow?
Do you get a funny feeling when they’re hanging from the ceiling?
Oh, you’ll never be a sailor if your balls hang low!
In shool we used to sing:
Can you throw them over your shoulder
Like a regimantal soldier

Damnit you guys, now I’ve had this tune going through my head for the last 2 hours! At this point I’d be happy to hear “Fernando” by Abba.
Do they make a lusty clamor,
when you hit 'em with a hammer?
Can you bounce 'em off the wall,
like an Indian rubber ball?
Do they make a hollow sound,
when you drag 'em on the ground?
Do you feel a mellow tingle,
when you hit 'em with a shingle?
Do they squeal like dogs,
When you tromp 'em with your clogs?
Do they have a salty taste,
When you wrap 'em round your waist?
Do they chime like a gong,
when you pull upon your dong?

Wow. I am one of these people that tend to visualize what I read. Thank God I’m not a man.
LOL When I was a little girl I only knew the “clean” version (thank goodness for that!) …“Do your EARS hang low?..”
