This is great fun guys :) I'm amazed by all the work you've put into that

It's a long way from listening to Zeppelin stoned in the basement! LOL  This is excellent and I'm proud of you!

Written by Nancy White, (c) 1970 Nancy White.  
From the album "Country, Rock, Folk, Blues" 2005.  Ian: guitars, bass, vocal. I've been performing this little ditty for years - I don't think Nancy recorded this herself. Brilliant how first word in each line in the verses spells out "BINGO"...
