I used to have a staggering willie when I was younger, I don't know about down on my knees though.

Cheers

"Looking For Money" can be found on the two cassette set of HILLS OF HOME, Rounder C AN 16/17 (Cassette Two). This version is done by Chicken Chokers, a group that according to the liner notes '...covers a wide spectrum of sound, from the prehistoric rural southern stringbands of the '20s to the streamlined synthesizers of the '80s.'

Thank you Pene. I would have thought the song older than 1958, but there you go, what do I know.
