Song was written when the Berlin Wall was pushed down. Can't seem to find it on John Prine Shrine website, or anywhere else. |

We're gonna set this wall a-rockin' Later we'll go cuckoo clockin' Dancing on the wall Not sure about the phrase in question marks. Maybe a German speaker could lend an ear? |
