I bought the album, "T-Shirt" in 1976 and loved this song then found his work in MASH the movie and the TV show.. Now it's 47 years later and I'll be dancing with my Daughter at her wedding to Loudon's "Daughter"
Friends of mine put together a little band in the mid 70s. I played this for them and they added it to their playlist. They filled in at a jazz club one night and my friends and I went. First time I was at a bar when they threw EVERYBODY out including the band and locked the doors. Thanks for the memories!
This song was on the T Shirt album.Superb but somehow its not around The album was super in pain, sarcasm and lots of humor, Fu**ing Brilliant Album? maybe his sarcasm hit close to home.

Been a fan of LW3 since my college days back in the 1970's. Brilliant artist!
I first heard this song in 1972 on U of P’s radio station WXPN
Pure Genius. I need a drink.
This was a bootleg in the 70s love it.
awesome memories from 45 years ago
Know this song since my early 20s never has it lost it funny charm but he's a lyrical poet 😍
Just found this song, have not heard it since the 70's! I love it and I am so happy!

Have not heard this since I was working for UNIVAC and that name alone dates me too much. Thanks for posting this one.
A moments silence for the verse 'Keep your hemp and your mushrooms ... '
