This sounds like the "Old Dogs" group - I hear Waylon in there for sure. But I also hear Willie, and he was not in the Old Dogs group.... Great Song :-)
Dr. Hook was the name of a seven man band. Ray Sawyer & Dennis Locorriere were the band's lead vocalists. Shel Silverstein wrote the majority of their early material from '71 - '76. From '77 - '84, they only used a few songs of his. The only member of the band in this song was Ray and if you want to count the singer/songwriter, too.
Some copies of CDs with this song claim that Dennis Locorriere is singing. That is incorrect. They have him confused with either Ray Sawyer or Shel Silverstein.
Used to sing this to my kids ...with some selective censorship when it came to Dixie Belle and her jeans!

I had never heard this song before I stumbled across it here - love it!
I had no idea what Shel Silverstein sounded like, but it's nothing like I would have imagined.
