Wang Dang Doodle

By , About.com Guide

Definition:

Wang Dang Doodle: An African-American slang term for a party, popularized by the Howlin' Wolf version of the Willie Dixon song. Oddly enough, neither the songwriter nor the performer thought much of the song, Wolf denigrating it as a "levee camp" song. Still, "Wang Dang Doodle" has also been recorded by Koko Taylor, Ted Nugent, Savoy Brown, and the Grateful Dead, as well as by Dixon himself.
