А я и не знал, что они двоюродные братья.

Еsе, с твоего разрешения с youtube-a:

"Come on-a My House" is a popular song. It was written by Ross Bagdasarian (stage name David Seville) and William Saroyan in summer of 1939 but did not become a hit until 1951. It was probably Saroyan's only effort at popular songwriting, and it was one of Bagdasarian's few well-known works that was not connected to his most famous creation, Alvin and the Chipmunks.

The song (written by two Fresno Armenians) touches upon traditional Armenian customs of inviting over relatives and friends and providing them with a generously overflowing table of fruits, nuts, seeds, and other foods.

The song was a major hit for Rosemary Clooney in 1951; it was the first of a number of dialect songs that Clooney did. She recorded the song with Mitch Miller and his orchestra and harpsichordist Stan Freeman in the early part of 1951, and the song reached #1 on the Billboard magazine charts, staying in the top position for eight weeks.

The composers even performed the song themselves (Bagdasarian singing, Saroyan offering occasional narration) for Coral Records.
