This isn't anywhere close to the exact rhytm, but you can probably
figure the right one out by listening to it.

Here's the funky part of the solo it reminds me of that song that goes:
Do your ears hang low do they wobble too and fro, can you tie them in a
knot, can you tie them in a bow.
Well, it kinda does
