Hey WS,

Or this one from the "Surf's Up" album by the Beach Boys.
Lookin' At Tomorrow - A Welfare Song
(Al Jardine-Gary Winfrey The Beach Boys 1971 Al Jardine)

I've been laying on my back
Like a freight train off a track
Trying to find a job to fit my trade
With the morning sun come 'round
Well I'll be covering plenty of ground
And I don't need nobody to pay my aid
Mmmm pay my aid

Now Bess and me were feeling bad
And all the good jobs they were had
I had to take to sweeping up some floors
Well I don't mind that so much
Or the changing of my luck
But you know I could be doing so much more

Well I'll be coming home tonight
Everything will be all right
And we'll be looking at tomorrow.....

----------------------------------------
I've thought a lot about these lyrics over the last 24
months of monumental layoffs.

A haunting melody goes with this one. Interesting tune.
The gist of the album title isn't "Frankie and Annette"
but end of an era.

Gray, but mild in Cheeseland,
Tom
