Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD
Wolfgang,

Thanks for your interest. Your posted lyrics are correct except for the following few:

It's: What ya gonna do in Egypt when your lamps gone out?

It's: Considered myself lucky to even be alive.
The gal there said, "Come on in, boy, don't you ramble no more."

It's: Walkie in I say.

also: a "quail" is a bird---often hunted for food in the U.S.A. About the size of a chicken--only smaller. ;-) Has nothing to do with the former bumbling vice president of the USA ;-)

Also: LAUDENUM is an opiate liquid medicine of olden times. It was usewd as a tranquilizer and sleep inducer. Also as a painkiller. Laudenum is what made Adam "sleep so sound".
