I have been trying to find this song for a few years now. I heard it late one night on WXPN in Philadelphia.
and was rolling on the floor with laughter because I knew a guy just like this.
I guess if you hang around long enough everyone know someone like this.
I pressed record on my cassette player …remember those?…
and just caught the last part of the song. The DJ probably gave the name of the group at the beginning so he didn't say anything at the end and just went into the next song. But I have always wanted to know who the group was. They kind of sounded like to group The Band but it wasn't them.
If anyone out there has any idea I would appreciate any help solving this mystery.Joe S.
Here are the words to the end of the song.

… but he still got that look in his eye.

His mama back home wishes he'd phone but his dad hopes he don't call today
The last time he called was some time last fall for money and to beg them to pray.
Well the church has his money and his clothes are still funny
and those new shoes aint even his size.
He used to take acid, but now he loves God but he still got that look in his eye. Yeah,
He used to take acid, but now he loves God but he still got that look in his eye.
