Hi Joe, Sylvia Herold knows this song -- I have heard her sing it. I know more words than those I posted based on a tape from the '80s. I wouldn't have thought it was a Peter Krug song and I never heard Faith sing it. None of the songs mentioned above sound like the same song except for part of the stanza about the drag strip, which I know as, "So if you go to the drag strip better drag fair/Though you can't see him Jesus is there. Yes, I'm telling you, Jesus was a teenager too." The song is funny, done in the style of a doo-wop pop song. I just want to know who wrote the words and music. Perhaps if any of Peter Krug's friends are still around one of them would know if he wrote it.
