[Dixielandjazz] Song words changed slightly

[Beth Schweitzer]

Trying again in plain text... (when will I ever learn?)

I always thought that song was about Henry Kissenger marrying Wanda
Hughes. So she's Wanda Hughes Kissinger now.


Sorry.

Now, instead of adding a letter to a lyric, if you take one away
instead, I was inspired by my lament at the beginning of this second
attempt, and in the chorus of "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" you
could sing about your college students:

"When will they ever earn, when will they ever earn?"

 Probably most anyone younger than we may not even know who Kissinger
 was, let alone what he's doing now. The leadup was that Kissinger had
 been through several surname changes in his lifetime, so his friends
 wrote the song about him.
 
 My college roommate several decades ago delighted in singing that
 version of "Who's Kissing."
