1. I voted for "Sylvia's Mother" but
it always cracked me up to hear
"When you're in love with a beautiful woman, it's hard"

Overstating the obvious... :evilgrin:

5. Carry Me, Carrie is it for me, too.
Sad song, done right. I got to see the Hook in Anchorage in 1972. Terrific concert.

4. They did some good stuff, but "Cover of the Rolling Stone" was a classic,
predating their actual appearance on said cover.

Rock 'n' roll!!!!!!

6. Am I the only one who remembers Dr. Hook's last chart hit?
"Baby Makes Her Bluejeans Talk." It reached #25 in 1982.
