Everyone knows this song, even if they don't realize they know it. It's only a few seconds long but it has all the parts of a song. I decided to do an arrangement of this simple tune on guitar, bass, snare drum, and organ. Why not? Happy Sunday.

  • 2 BITS is a quarter / 25 cents/ a quarter of a dollar.  Two bits, four bits, six bits a dollar all for CBGs stand up and hollar!

  • 25 cents is only one bit!

  • or is it two dimes?

  • thats two cents is it not Uncle John ?

  • What a fun little-itty-bitty ditty. This short, sweet, and catchy tune is proof that songs don't have to be long. I can't wait for more fun musical adventures.

     

  • That's a good point AGP, it's probably uniquely American.

  • I'm pretty sure 2 bits is 25¢ John.

  • That's a quarter to you & me uncle laughing

  • I have no memory of a song called Shave and a Haircut, but remember the tune quite well, I always thought it was called Dum Diddy Dum Dum Drop Dead, and have even used it as a finish to some of the Videos I've posted in the past ;-D

  •  Who knows what Two Bits means?
