Not sure if he wrote it. If I can dig up the tape I'll post the words, but no doubt somebody will beat me to it. Let's see, the chorus went something like this: Whoopee-ti-yi-yo, get a job, you old hippie Trade your [denim and leather?] for a coat and a tie Whoopie-ti-yi-yo, get upwardly mobile For the almighty dollar will be your new high Very 80s. Aloha, Mark |
