HawkerHurricane does NOT look 41!!
Happy Birthday HH!

I wish I knew how to do emoticons; I couldn't do them for NSMA birthday either (it's embarassing)

Tomorrow is going to be OK-

1. We'll get the Kingston Trio to sing Happy Birthday


Album cover The Kingston Trio . . . from the "Hungry i" from http://tralfaz-archives.com/coverart/K/kingston_trio_hungry.html

3. Or they could sing "Tom Dooley"
or "Lemon Tree"

I really like the Kingston Trio-

6. Or perhaps
"Where have all the flower gone"

It seems appropriate right now, somehow.

2. I agree!
May we all remain so youthful in appearance but wise in thought.

4. Somebody's a lot older than 41......
I think that picture of the Kingston Trio is of such a vintage that someone of HawkerHurricane's youth probably doesn't remember them....

5. Lot you know.
That was my favorite LP. I played it constantly, I can even quote it from begining to end from memory still; even the comments from the audiance (when audible).

(OK, I admit it, it was my Father's.)

Well, now,
back to back,
belly to belly,
well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done that already,
back to back
Belly to belly at the zombie jamboree.
(Now hear the chorus)
back to back,
belly to belly,
well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done that already,
back to back
Belly to belly at the zombie jamboree.

Zombie jamboree took place in a New York cemetery (Where?)
Zombie jamboree took place in Long Island cemetery.
Zombies from all parts of the island. (Where?)
Some of them are great calypsonians. (Some.)
Since the season was carnival they got together in bacchanal.
Oh, what ya' doin'?

Well, now, back to back, belly to belly,
well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done that already,
back to back
Belly to belly at the zombie jamboree.
(You can feel that)
back to back,
belly to belly,
well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done that already,
back to back
Belly to belly at the zombie jamboree.

One female zombie wouldn't behave.
She say she want me for a slave.
In the one hand she's holding a quart of wine,
in the other she's pointing that she'll be mine.
Well, believe me folks, I had to run. (Why?)
A husband of a zombie ain't no fun! (Don't knock it!)
I says, "Oh, no, my turtle dove,
that old bag of bones I cannot love."
Oh, what you doin'?

Well, now, back to back, belly to belly,
well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done that already,
back to back
Belly to belly at the zombie jamboree.
(Oh, what a good game)
back to back,
belly to belly,
well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done that already,
back to back
Belly to belly at the zombie jamboree.

Right then and there she raise her feet.
"I'm a-going to catch you now, my sweet.
I'm gonna make you call me 'Sweetie Pie'."
I says "Oh, no, get back, you lie!"
"I may be lyin' but you will see (What?)
After you kiss this dead zombie." (Blah!)
Well, I never seen such a horror in my life.
Can you imagine me with a zombie wife? (Yes!)

Well, now, back to back, belly to belly,
well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done that already,
back to back
Belly to belly at the zombie jamboree.
(you were all alone you know)
back to back,
belly to belly,
well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done that already,
back to back
Belly to belly at the zombie jamboree.

8. Nope...
as far as the music of the time, my Dear old Dad had every Kingston Trio album, but no other folk music albums...
