Inchworm

A deceptively simple little song by Frank Loesser that he wrote along with Thumbelina and Wonderful Copenhagen for the movie Hans Christian Andersen starring Danny Kaye in 1952. Paul McCartney covered it for his recent album Kisses On The Bottom

Other songs he wrote? What Are You Doing New Years Eve?,  On a Slow Boat to China and the xmas favourite: Baby, It's Cold Outside (he won an Oscar for that).
