Need to find the folk/classic rock song with the lyric: "Learn to play the saxaphone..."

Thanks

Is it possibly "Learn to work the saxaphone"? from Steely Dan - Aja - Deacon Blues?

"I'll learn to work the saxaphone. I'll play just what I feel. Drink Scotch whiskey all night long, . . ."

etc. . .

If it is indeed Deacons Blues, i should have the lyrics around somewhere...Steely Dan is a real fav.

sure it's not Sesame Street "gotta put down the ducky if you want to play the sax"?

I can't imagine "Deacon Blues" referred to as a "folk song." It is a nice tune though, and here are the lyrics.
