Subject: David Wilcox-Cheap Beer Joint
note to olga administrators: I would like to correct the name of a
a song I submitted recently by David Wilcox. I erred in thinking
the title of the song was "Play My Last Respects" when in fact this
songs title is "Cheap Beer Joint". Here is the song again.

Give me a cheap beer joint on the wrong side of town
