Dedicated to all our ancestors - The new rendition Working Five To Nine of Dolly Parton's Working Nine to Five lyrics to incorporate a corus of 7 Days A Week a wee break for those of our poor working folk as today we work to the tune of Eight Days A Week by the Beetles.

One would wonder how the song In the Ghetto.  was ever sung by Elvis let alone anyone else. No time - Burton Cummings / Guess who ;)

Hi All, Any chance of any Ancestry companies out there making some kind of a compilation album of these entries, I'm sure it would be a great seller. Thanks to All who contributed to this posting. With Christmas around the corner, wish you all what you wish yourselves during these troubled times. Cheers 8) ;D ;D ;D

I  didn't re-read the thread  but  wondered if "LOLA" by  the Kinks got a mention

boys will be girls and girls will be boys

a line from lola  that could apply to some Census translations

merry christmas Jenn
