I found this one by the Farr Brothers (of the Sons Of The Pioneers):
"The Knock Me Over Easy Mama, Don't Take All My Spendings, I'll Buy That New Car For You Blues"
Imagine the poor DJ announcing that one! 
Kind Regards, Walter

Hey Walter, haven't you heard of that song called "Smiles"? There's a mile between the first S and the last S.

I was always under the impression that the award went to Hoagy Carmichael for his song
"I'm just a cranky old Yank in a clanky old tank on the streets of Yokohama with my Honolulu mama singin' these beat-o, beat-o, flat on my seat-o, Hirohito Blues"

When it Was Mine All the Time."

I wrote one, one time titled: "If I'da Knew You'da Done Me, Like You Went Ahead And Did Me, I'da Went Ahead And Did You Like I Done You, Before You Had A Chance To Do Me First." BTW, It was the entire song.
This better not show up on a new George Strait Album without a loooonnnng check to go with it. |

A little off track, but we always had fun with this
Chords........1...........5.............1
This is the shortest song in the world!
You would be done just about the time they started dancing
