This Week's Freebie from The 1937 Flood

 It was towards the end of a rollicking rehearsal, when between songs the guys start talking about what they plan to do in the week ahead. 

Danny mentions that he’d been getting out to take his walk in the mornings before the heat sets in. That prompts Charlie to start singing that old Fats Domino song, “I’m walkin’, yes, indeed, and I’m talking’….” 

 
Well, Danny — who by anybody’s definition is a walking jukebox — starts playing the old tune. Sam and Jack immediately pick up the vibe. Charlie reaches for the banjo to add a little pepper to the plot as Randy starts searching his memory bank for the words and melody — and suddenly the song seems to be arranging itself.
