"My Ding-a-Ling" is the title of a novelty song written and recorded by Dave Bartholomew. In 1972 it was covered by Chuck Berry and became Berry's only U.S. number-one single on the pop charts. Later that year, in a longer unedited form, it was included on the album The London Chuck Berry Sessions. Two members of the Average White Band, guitarist Onnie McIntyre and drummer Robbie McIntosh, played on the single. Nic Potter of Van der Graaf Generator played bass on the track.
"My Ding-a-Ling" was originally recorded by Dave Bartholomew in 1952 for King Records. When Bartholomew moved to Imperial Records, he re-recorded the song under the new title, "Little Girl Sing Ting-a-Ling". In 1954, The Bees on Imperial released a version entitled "Toy Bell". Berry recorded a version called "My Tambourine" in 1968, but the version which topped the charts was recorded live during the Lanchester Arts Festival at the Locarno ballroom in Coventry, England, on 3 February 1972, where Berry – backed by The Roy Young Band – topped a bill that also included Slade, George Carlin and Billy Preston. Boston radio station WMEX disc jockey Jim Connors was credited with a gold record for discovering the song and pushing it to #1 over the airwaves and amongst his peers in the United States. Billboard ranked it as the No. 15 song for 1972.

Get the lingalingus mug.A lingley is a euphemism for the never ending struggle to get tail, whether it be from a male or female. Lingley was an expert of the tail pursuit in the American Southwest during the late 1980s, similar to Chaz Reinhardt from Wedding Crashers. For that purpose, a lingley is an homage to the hunt for sexual partners or the act of hunting for sexual partners.
i.e. "man, i think we should get pinned and pull a lingley tonight. I need to get laid"
i.e. " (with an unsuspecting parent) - mom, i would really love to stay and talk about grandma's boils but i have to go out and pull a lingley tonight."

Get the lingley mug.Much like the term "Hit It and Quit it," but not to the extent of having sex, but around the extent of just fingering. You commit the act, and then leave the woman to "linger" or stay, where they belong... most likely away from you.
