What is this bed music after the Bud commercial?

Robert:

Aw, too bad, Bob W. I was hoping to see again the Piels coasters I hadn't seen in 50 years. Why do families always get rid of stuff like that? The only one whose caption I remember went: "Coasters? I thought we were posing for posters." "Smile anyway, Bert."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:01am

Bed music is Bert Kaempfert, "That Happy Feeling."
