DING! Great job, my friend.

That theme is just unmistakable. Just pound on the table 5 times at correct intervals, and any movie buffs would recognize it instantly.

You might be able to do it with the theme from 'Jaws' too. I have no rhythm, so I can't tell.

I was thinking Low Rider, but it’s way more than five thunks.

Good King Wenceslas went out, on the Feast of Stephen.

Given your avatar, I’m guessing I Saw Three Ships.

I saw three ships come sailing in on Christmas Day in the morning

Three ships doesn't do it; I don't know how to tap that out using just dits and dahs as there are some sixteenth notes I think. Good King Wenceslaus works; but I had in mind Yankee Doodle.
