There was one tune of Dick's Larry so detested
the ha piont-blank refused to write lyric for. Finally cornered, Larry
wrote a lyric to dick's obnoxious melody, inspiration provided
by a recent stay at Colligan Stockton Inn in New Jersey, about a small
Hotel and the wishing well that make the song a world favorite.
Eventualy the song was re-used in On Your Toes.
