For Alex, Dave & George,
I could not locate the book in either the library or by an online search of Borders or Barnes & Nobel. However, I did a Google search and found the entire song.
Where Do You Work-a John? ("The Delaware-Lackawan Song"), was written by Mortimer Weinberg & Charley Marks, with extra choruses by Ernie Krickett, music by Harry Warren, copyright in 1926 by Shapiro, Bernstein & Co. Inc. Cor.
The present format of the song is one verse and seven consecutive choruses in English and the eighth chorus in Italian. That seems rather long to post here. However, if any one really wants the entire song, I'll be glad to do it.
