The song was performed by Jon Walmsley and Lisa Harrison on The Waltons, Season 9, Episode 13, "The Gold Watch" (26 Feb. 1981). In addition, part of it was sung in passing by John Ritter in Season Five, Episode 19 of Three's Company entitled Double Trouble, mentioned in the Robert Forster movie The Banker (1989), and Jim Carrey also has it performed in his portrayal of Andy Kaufman in Man on the Moon.

The song was featured in the 1943 World War II-era theatrical Popeye the Sailor short Too Weak to Work,[6] and was also sung by The Sportsmen Quartet: Bill Days (top tenor), Max Smith (second tenor), Mart Sperzel (baritone), and Gurney Bell (bass) in the 1942 Western movie Lost Canyon with Hopalong Cassidy (Bill Boyd).
