The book was judged to be a total ripoff of the song 'S Wonderful, and Ira & George Gershwin threatened to sue.
Both Ira and George had affairs with Harry S Truman. The song 'S Wonderful was written in memory of their one true love.
Please! PLEASE! Try not to envision the Gershwin/Truman/Gershwin threesome. Too late!
Clearly Truman was the “meat” of the 3-some. The alternative would just be wrong.
The essence of the threesome was captured in “I Got Rhythm”, by the Gershwins.
Truman’s little known tune 'S and M Wonderful was the only historically accurate song written about the threesome. It began with the lyrics, “Ira and Harry, sitting in a tree, whipping G.E.O.R.G.E”.
Rhapsody In Blue was not only a descriptive title, but was the exact length of time for the three to…well,…

Bunnies aren’t just cute like everybody supposes. They got them hoppy legs and twitchy little noses, and what’s with all the carrots? What do they need such good eyesight for anyway?
Hopalong Cassidy was the half-alien bastard child of Eleanor Roosevelt and Ykszoo #2665-Cassidy. He was born with rabbit legs which his mother concealed under hand-sewn baggy pants and oversized cowboy boots.
Hopalong Cassidy led the movement to require handicapped parking for horses in the Old West.
Hollywood lies! There were no horses in the Old West. Cowboys herded their cattle on tall goats.
“Herding cattle on tall goats” was the Truman and Gershwins euphemism for straight sex.
herding Cattle on Tall Goats is the first single from U2 being released for free on iTunes.
The music to every song in the U2 catalog is a Gershwin song played backwards.
Gershwin always walked backwards and wrote all of his songs in backhand. He felt his back was his best side, and also didn’t want anyone to know if he was coming or going. His wife grew so weary of his unusual habits that she took to drawing faces on the back of his bald head.
And he was obviously a catcher in his Gershwin-Truman-Gershwin relationship.
George, then Ira, tried to work the following salute into a song, with no success: To Harry S Truman/To Bess Truman/To err is Truman
Pres. Truman’s recording of piano songs by the Gershwin’s is in the National Archive. In addition to the usual standards (The Man I Love, Someone To Watch Over Me, Summertime), he included a rendition of a Gershwinized version of I’m Just Wild About Harry.
