To the tune of "The Letter" By the Box Tops


Gimme a ticket for an SC game
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
'Cause George Lucas just-a wrote me a letter

He doesn't care how much money he's gotta spend
Got to get SC back to glory again
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
'Cause George Lucas just a-wrote me a letter

Well, he wrote me a letter
Said USC needed new buildings now, yeah
175 mil for all new kids
but nothing for us unemployed graduates, wow...

anyway...

How much money did the paper cost
to send me a note telling me I've completely lost
out on all the fun, all the money won,
'Cause George Lucas just a-wrote me a letter.
'Cause George Lucas just a-wrote me a letter.

How can you possibly be familiar with the Box Tops? By the time I saw them (1969) they had been reduced to playing in honky tonk bars.

Rick...they have this amazing invention where they record music and then mass produce it in a variety of forms - known as records, 8-tracks, casette tapes, or CDs. ;^)

Seriously...I'm an oldie fan.
