A friend just rang and asked if I had the words in my archives.....and I don't. Did a text search on both ``Forum and DB.´´but found nothing. So Mudcatters it's up to you! Chorus goes ``What were their names,tell me what were their names, did you have a friend on the good Ruben James? Greetings John. PS.Any interesting background history?

From: Rasta Hey John if you cant get the words onthe data base you might want to go to (the Kingston trio place) they have almost all the words to everything they ever recorded . just go to lyrics when you get there and its pretty much self explanatory. ---Rastaaaa |
