I love this song! look at me a teenager who has been in love with dr. hook since she was only enough to talk (which by the way was when i was 8 months) <3 <3 <3
Now how could anyone not like this if they grew up as teenagers when this song came out? I grew up in these times and I'm surprised I lived through it but was it ever a great time in my life. THESE GUYS ROCK!!!!!!!!
@chelseydawnlaw Well, he said it would be held at the Freaker's Hall, but he forgot to give an address, directions, telephone number, or even the city for that matter (San Francisco maybe?). And yeah, I'm with you (sighs). I would have loved to have gone. Darn.
@HtsDontsproductions0 Yeah, You gotta love em...My first thought when i heard this song the first time is they must've been on some damn good shit!!!!!!!!
im surprised by how few people are even aware of this band, its a jewel and a credit to society.lol.right after typing that it started talkin bot the fags and the dykes! muhahaha!!!
First heard this album 20 odd years ago , stoned as a t### , when my mate said he was puttin Dr Hook on we thought he was mad , spent next 20 years looking for a copy of it though ;-) . Thank the gods for utube !
i grew up with this song my parents who are still together used to have partys still do thanks mom and dad love u brother with sister son with mother freaking at the freakers balllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
First heard this song when I was about 3yrs old. Twenty years later and I still love it. I used to sing it in english class in high school. Awesome song.
started with the silly stuff and probably did a few drugs too and when they tried to be taken seriously it was too late.because they really were very talented song writers maybe not great musisions.Many great love songs but they thought they could be the next cheech and chong
when I first remember these guy's I was 5 yrs old... my dad used to play this music... he been passed for 11 yrs now.. hereI am playin it for my 11 yr old son.. how kewl it is ...TRADITION!!! by the way.. I'm 43,now!!
when I first remember these guy's I was 5 yrs old... my dad used to play nthis music... he been passed for 11 yrs now.. hereI am playin it for my 11 yr old son.. how kewl it is ...TRADITION!!!
I couldn't get this tune out of my head yesterday at work! I couldn't remember the lyrics, so my mind started making up its own... something about a porcupine eating mashed potatoes? Fresh strings on my guitars. THX for the post, LMAO!!! Dr. Hook at its funniest!
Ha ha ha i was lookingup poems for english and came across this by shel silverstien.....then i told my mother and she told me to lok up the song......wow! funny song
coz they got banned from radio in US they are much under rated, but all you have to look at is the number of covers. This one could do with a Croydon Cover coz it sounds like a regular Monday.
