Hi Red Ant! Thanks for the karma -- right back atcha!  :)

I don't have an MP3 of the OS.  YouTube doesn't appear to have the OS either.  I might search around a bit more, see if I can find something ...

I've been well, thanks.  Taking a break from theater (and from parody writing), concentrating on my personal and family life.  But always ready to respond if song parody inspiration strikes!  ;D

(God bless you too, per your signature! :))

Frankly I'd be pissed if I were Peter Rowan//Flaco Jiminez...and I would be pissed, too that I didn't receive proper accreditation were it my parody.  ;D Oh, the joys of the Internet.  :)

it's irritating to me too, because if you search google for that song, amIright comes up nowhere in the results, but these lame ripoff lyrics sites do.
