Subject: RE: Mistakes I Have Made When Listening To Songs
This has been REAL entertaining. Our friend Dorothy always thought "She's got a ticket to ri-ide" was "She's got a stupid giraffe". Then there's Pete Seeger's "ONE TON Tomato, Why she's a ONE TON Tomato, One ton to-MAY-TO..... Robert Hunter maintained for years that if his lyrics sounded like something else that made sense, that they should be sung that way. Later on he was finally per- suaded to put out a book of all his lyrics. It's called BOX OF RAIN....I recommend it highly.
