Thread Name: Lyr Req: Johnathon W. Astor ??
Subject: Johnathon W. Astor ??
I seem to recall a Smothers Brothers song about this fellow, I believe his name was Johnathon W. Astor, but my memory is dim. It was a great tune about how no one would waltz with him, as he was too good. Finally he met a woman with three legs that waltzed beautifully. The chorus end in 5/4 time, something like "I like the waltz, I have my faults; I have three legs (but I'm in good health) etc... etc...

Lyrics would be best, if anyone has them, but I'd settle for a proper song title, or even the album.

much obliged,

Lucius
