I grew up on Long Island,

a place called Mattituck

Finding it on Mapquest?

Wish you -rotz-a-ruck!

Went to teacher's college
up in Oneonta
could have taught my whole darn life
I just didn't want ta trade blackboard for a keyboard
cuz that was more my nature
wrote ditties in a piano bar
for NY's legislature

That led to conventions
all around the nation
then a gig on radio
at another station

Move over to "Country" ???
Of course I said ,"HELL NO"
I'm STILL doin' "Country"--
that was 18 years ago!!!!!!!
