[Dialogue] sing along

[frank bremner]

Dear Colleen 
 
The song is "Sixteen Tons", made famous by Tennessee Ernie Ford back in the '50s, if not earlier.
 
Cheers
 
Frank "Rock'n'roll trivia" Bremner

way to go Marshall.  I just spent an interesting half hour google economic systems where the government bails out or to say tax payers buy out businesses  None of the information fits the definition of market driven laissez-faire economics.  Hitler tried a lot of the same stuff to shore up Germany's economics.  There's another song you might consider, " Did 16 tons and what do I get?  another day older and deeper in debt.  I owe my soul to the company store."  Sorry I don't know the rest of it.

Sometimes you just have to burst out singing:
 
The Bailout Blues
Tune: I’ve been working on the railroad
Lyrics: Marshall Jones
 
I just really need a bailout.
All the live long day.
I just gotta have my bailout.
Just to keep my blues away.
 
Can’t you see the whistle blowers
Rise up so early with the sun?
Can’t you hear the lawyers shouting,
Something must be done!
 
Bush has gotta go, Cheney’s gotta go, Lehman’s gotta go to jail.
Little did they know, when they told us so, we won’t have to put up bail.
 
Someone’s in collusion with Paulson
Someone making millions I know.
Someone’s in collusion with Wall Street,
Strumming on the old banjo.
 
And singing,
 
Fee, fie, nothing I owe.
Fee, fie, nothing I owe, owe, owe, owe.
Fee, fie, bailiout, you know!
Strumming on the old banjo!
