Jo Jo the Dog Faced Boy (song)

"Jo Jo the Dog Faced Boy" was a novelty song made popular by Disney Mouseketeer, Annette Funicello. The song was written by the Bob and Dick Sherman in collaboration with L.A. based songwriter Bob Roberts. "Jo Jo" followed up on Annette's hit song, "Tall Paul" which itself marked the first time a female singer reached a top ten slot for a rock and roll single. The Sherman Brothers went on to write the majority of Annette's early 1960s songs as well as winning two Oscars for Mary Poppins several years later.

In the lyrics, homage is made to the popular song from the previous year, "Beep Beep" with the line, "Where in the world was the little Nash Rambler?".
