A Little Ditty – Knights of Columbus Water Tower, Frame Scaffold & Enclosure

April 14, 2026

There she was just a-walkin' down the street, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do." Then, I started singing - Little ditty about Jack and Diane Two American kids growin' up in the heartland Jackie gonna be a football star Diane's debutante backseat of Jackie's car Suckin' on a chili dog Outside the Tastee Freez What can I say, I’m nostalgic. And can you believe that first line was from Manfred Mann in 1964 - long before he hit it big singing a Springsteen song.
