A guy went downtown with $100.

He intended to Hei-de-ho.

When a couldn't quite figure out who to approach with his offer, a
helpful woman stepped forward to end his confusion and said "Idaho."

Just to keep this on a "naughty ti call" bearing, there was a boat in my
old marina named Heidi Ho.

If you looked carefully, you saw a very small "the" separating Heidi and
Ho.

The story went that Heidi was the owner's first wife and after the
divorce, his second wife refused to require a boat name change.

Hmmmm - I wonder why? :)

Blood Sweat & Tears Hi De Ho lyrics


(G. Goffin, C. King)
(as sung by BS&T, slightly different than original lyrics)
Hi De Ho
Hi De Hi
Gonna Get me
A piece of the pie
Gonna get me
Some of that Old Sweet Roll
Singin' Hi de hi de hi de hi de Hooooo
I've been down so low
Bottom looked like up
Once I thought that seconds saves
was enough to fill my cup
So I proffered all I got
But it ain't no way to live
Being taken by the ones who got
The least amount to give
Hi de ho
Hi de hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singing hi de hi de hi de hi de hooooo.
instrumental interlude
Once I met the devil
He was mighty slick
Tempted me with worldly goods
Said -you can have your pick-
But when he laid that paper on me
And he showed me where to sign
I said thank you very kindly
But I'm in too good-a mood to mind
Hi de ho
Hi de hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singin' hi de hi de hi de hi de hooooo.
Hi de ho
Hi de hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singin' hi de hi de hi de hi de hoooo
(repeat to fade)

Adjacent to Ahoy is the term Yo-Ho! a slight twist on Ahoy.


I used Yo-Hos for years. Gained 60 lbs.

Oh wait .... those were "Ho-Hos" sorry .....

Carry on.


ROTFL!!!

Ho-Hos are my one secret vice.

My new downfall is Stella D'oro Anisette Toast with coffee. Having watched
the calories faithfully for almost 4 months, those damn things are going to
screw me all up if I don't stop buying them. Two or three with a cup of
coffee is fine, but it's hard to stop there.

I had to stop eating Ho-Hos because I would buy them by the box. When I
did, they never even made it home.

Like the Stella D'oro Anisette Toast, but it's not quite the same - I
get tired of the anisette flavor very quickly.
