Sorry 'bout t'at.

While we were having holidays, a non-Jewish friend of ours, who shall be called "Lissi", was making good use of our computer. As a kindness to one starving for a "Mudcat fix" she frequently interrupted her research to "check threads" for me, so I could at least see what ya'll were up to, though I couldn't respond. So as not to confuse things, we asked her not to post in this forum until the holiday and Sabbath were over.

But poor Lissi is just a'itchin' to know the lyrics to "It Goes How It Goes", and she surfed the net THOROUGHLY to no avail. She learned in her travels/travails, however, that this song is not a folk song as she had thought, that it was written by David Shire and Norman Gimbel, sung by Jenifer Warnes in the film "Norma Rae" (and later by Michael Crawford), and that, although it never made the pop charts, it did win the Oscar for "Best Song" in 1979.

I know it's a long shot, but she has only rare access to a computer, and no money a'tall to buy a soundtrack, even if one were available. Hoped the generous souls here might point her to the lyrics in an accessible (read that as "cheap") form, or better still, post 'em for her. Much, much obliged.
