Are the chips OK?
Does the music play as loud as you love it?
How are you today?
How are you today?
Are there sirenes in the air and police-cars everywhere?
How are you today?
How are you today?
Is the grass OK?
And is Sunny playing round on a big playground?
How are you today?
How are you tonight?
Is everything alright?
Hope the beat is tight!

I bought the original single when it came out, a brilliant song, from one of he best bands of the 70's....I saw their gig at The Rainbow with Lynard Skynard as support, also saw them at The Sundown Edmonton mid 70's.
Sweet Faith
That must have been an awesome concert. Love Golden earring and Lynyrd Skynyrd, two of my favorite bands.
