I know that WYSIWYG means that what you see on the screen is what
you'll get on paper when you print it.  I know that it is an
abbreviation of the phrase "what you see is what you get".  I know (?)
that this phrase comes from some popular song.

My question is: from which song did the phrase "what you see is what
you get" come?

Just curious...
