Subject: Lyr Add: OLD AGE PENSION CHECK (Roy Acuff)^^ From: Stewie Date: 20 Jan 00 - 01:18 AM Here you go:
OLD AGE PENSION CHECK
When the old age pension check comes to our door
When the old age pension check comes to our door
Grow a flowing long white beard and use a cane
Powder and paint will be abolished on that day
All the drugstores will go bankrupt on that day

Subject: RE: Lyrics Request:Old Age Pension Check From: GUEST,Pete Peterson Date: 21 Jan 00 - 09:21 AM I'm pretty sure that the original recording was Roy Acuff but I don't have an exact reference. (Stewie-- if you've got the liner notes to the NLCR they usually gave a Discography) Great song! |
