Subject: RE: BS: Chicago Chantey Sing
Hope someone works up that old Chicago chantey "The Lincoln Park Pirates" by Steve Goodman; as we sing it here in Portland, Maine, its chorus runs:

Away, hey, haul 'em away!
The parking lot pirates are we!
From the Hill to the Ferry,
There's none that's so hairy,
And we always collect our fee!
Away, hey, haul 'em away!
We plunder the streets of yer town,
Be it Edsel or Chevy,
There's no car too heavy,
And no one can make us shut down!

Arghhh!
