I Googled it after I posted it and found that out. Or Wiki'd it to be more
precise.
And its a long story they came out with lyrics which were not used then
other people wrote some and those were used.
I hum the song about every time I get on it. I'm sure I'm about the only
one.

Take the "A" Train

Those lyrics sites are dumber than hell its like they think the person who
sang it is the person who wrote it. And I'd forgot that for a moment.
