So, one of my favorite tracks from the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Queue Music is Big Rock Candy Mountain. When listening to it earlier this week, I remembered this old Burger King commercial featuring Darius Rucker from Hootie and the Blowfish singing BRCM.
Hilarious:

I miss the old BK ad campaigns. |

And if you ever listened to the original lyrics, it is not a children's song. It's about hobos and streams and lakes of alcohol, etc. _________________ [ |

streams of alcohol - now there's something that I can get behind!
Yeah, that's correct. You can find the song history on Wikipedia. I would've posted the link, but it is not 100% family friendly - it's rated PG. |

You can hear the song on the soundtrack from, "Oh Brother! Where art Thou?" _________________ [ |
