Yes, quite a few times over the decades. A bit of Americana that apparently is fading into the past.

The Wikipedia article Boston Brahmin here gives a version and attributes it to John Collins Bossidy here.

This was cross posted with Michael. The funny singer he mentions is, I think, Tom Lehrer, who is still alive. Lehrer might well have used the verse.
