Canned Heat, "Going Up the Country"
Misheard Lyrics:
No use in you runnin' or screamin' and cryin'
'Cause you got your wombat, baby I got mine
Original Lyrics:
No use of you runnin' or screamin' and cryin'
'Cause you got a home as long as I got mine
Not much of a story--that's how my twelve-year-old ears heard it on the cheesy speakers of the transistor radios of the era. I thought it was pretty cool to have a song about wombats.
