Quote:OK, if we're going to talk Effort = Payoff..."Na-Bis-Co". don't forget the "ding"Na-Bis-Co--ding LOLI'll add Sweet Loretta by Angie Aparo (who also originally wrote and recorded Cry that Faith Hill made a hit.Sweet Loretta was never a hit, hasn't made him a ton of money but it should.I love the opening line of the lyric...She only dreams in black and whiteshe just can't seem to turn the color on<------Angie Aparo is the guy in my avatar BTW. Although we do share a striking resemblance. Not necessarily intentional, there's only so much you can do with your look when you shave your head.
