1 down 1 to go
Still seeking *A Rusty old Halo*
The lyrics - not the real thing just yet

A RUSTY OLD HALO
written by Bob Miller, sung by Hoyt Axton
I know a man rich as a king
Still he just won't give his neighbors a thing
He'll get to Heaven someday I'll bet
He'll get up to Heaven and here's what he'll get
CHORUS
A rusty old halo
Skinny white cloud
Second hand wings full of patches
A rusty old halo
Skinny white cloud
And a robe that's so wooly that it scratches
Some people have them big fancy cars
Swimming pools and fur coats and diamonds in jars
Real silver gates, real golden doors
They'll get upto Heaven and trade them all for
CHORUS
While you're on Earth
You should shine like a star
And brighten up the world where ever you are
Doin' each day, the best you can do
That way you're sure that they'll never hand you...
CHORUS

Thanks for the *faerie* dust, LadyQ3, upon analysis I find that one of its ingredients is wood fiber.....Could it be saw dust? *LOL* There's rather a thick layer of it here on the floor of the pub, must be lots of magic happening, also helpful in soaking up spilled pints...!

*sweeps the faerie dust up into an urn* ... for later needs ....

Alright, now this is really a challenge here. I heard a song on "beyondthebeatgeneration.com" radio yesterday. Goes almost like this "I'm so glad cause you're there... but the people walk along(or something dunno)" Now, if anyone, anything. It's definitely a song from the counter culture times. The singer is a woman. Wasn't able to open the website itself to take a look at the playlist so please, help!
