Who is Jacques Levy?

Was he the boxer?

The song is about Rubin "Hurricane" Carter, a top ranked boxer that was accused, some say falsely, of murder.

Levy co-authored the song.

'She was only sixteen, but knew how to nasty!'

Aah. Thanks Vic.

Co-authored is right, war and peace is shorter than that song.

My line hasn't been answered yet Buck.



"Some of them fell into heaven, some of them fell into hell."

I had a job in the great north woods
Working as a cook for a spell
But I never did like it all that much
And one day the ax just fell.

Shit, that rhymes.

"Tangled Up In Blue" Dylan

Here's the next one:


"Now in Vienna there's ten pretty women
There's a shoulder where Death comes to die
There's a lobby with nine hundred windows
There's a tree where the doves go to die
There's a piece that was torn from the morning
and it hangs in the Gallery of Frost"

"Your dad's addicted to ping-pong"

Leonard Cohen - Take This Waltz
had to look but should have known

Tom Jones! Tom Jones sung that, Vic!

You got me there, lol!

I'm going back to Trois-Rivières
I've got some good old friends down there
And a couple of girls
That deserve better than me

The Ping Pong Song
- Tom Green

Can I have a go?

Give me crack and anal sex
Take the only tree that's left
and stuff it up the hole
in your culture

Mountains come out of the sky
and stand there.

Blue Grass Punk? Possibly an oxymoron of the highest degree... I can picture the lyrics now....


Y'all Grab your fiddle
While the cakes are on the griddle
And my sister grabs my diddle,
To crank me way past middle
In the woods on a frost covered day.

Send that to Nashville, PM!

May be the latest biggy on 16th Avenue.

Is that one autobiographical, P.M.?

If it is, you must have some Arkansas or West Virginia blood in you.

If it's West Virginia, you must know Cal's sister.
