Wienermobile Visits Coeur d’Alene

On her Facebook wall, Facebook Friend Nancy White posts the photo above (taken less than an hour ago) and this message: "Just spotted the Wienermobile at the Hampton Inn in CdA. Does anyone else remember this as a kid? Where is my Oscar Mayer weiner whistle when I need it?" She adds a comment later: "My 16 year old did not get why I was giddy when I spotted it."

Question: Nancy sez the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile probably still is in the Hampton Inn lot. If memory serves me correctly, this is a return visit to the Hampton Inn by the Wienermobile. Would you get giddy if you saw it? And/or: Can you remember the ditty that goes with the ad?
