Sounds like Kenny Chesneys Out last night here are the lyrics: We went out last night Like we swore we wouldn't do Drank too much beer last night A lot more than we wanted to There were girls from Argentina and Arkansas Maine, Alabama and Panama All mixed together and having a ball (Chorus) Yeah, we went went out last night One thing started leading to another Out last night Getting to know everybody and their mother There were two karaoke girls drunk on a dare Singing "I Got You Babe" by Sonny and Cher Yeah, life was good everywhere We went out last night Well you know I'm a music man I grew up in east Tennessee Last night I was everything When I got a few drinks in me I was a doctor, a lawyer, a senator's son Brad Pitt's brother and a man on the run Anything I thought would get the job done (Chorus) Yeah, we went out last night One thing started leading to another Out last night Getting to know everybody and their mother There were people doing body shots up on the bar Jimmy in a fist fight out by the car Everybody was some kind of star When we went out last night Well the fact that I'm still breathing Means that I must have survived And that I lived to go out with my friends again tonight (Chorus) Oh, We went out last night One thing started leading to another Out last night Everybody started loving on each other They were dancing on the tables And howling at the moon Pairing up together and pretty soon There was not a sole in sight When we went out last night

Bridge Over Troubled Water....Simon & Garfunel

Jimmie Rodgers....when I saw the date of that, I googled him because the Jimmie Rodgers I knew and loved ("Honeycomb", "Oh, Oh, I'm Falling in Love Again", etc.) wasn't even born in 1928. "My" Jimmie is listed as a pop singer, whereas the Jimmie Rodgers who did "Blue Yodel" was a country singer who died in 1933. FYI, the two are not related. Just a little Monday-morning trivia.

Frieda, re your question about school assemblies and Jerusalem in particular. It used to be the law that every school began each day with a form of religious 'observance'. As far as I know this is still the case, although the large 'secondary' schools get round it by claiming lack of space/time etc. But junior schools, even the non-denominational ones, will have a couple of prayers and a hymn plus 'announcements'. And C of E and RC kids will probably attend weekly/occasional services in their local church. Of course these days, as your friend says we have become a far more 'secular' country plus we have had a huge influx of people bringing in a wide range of faiths, all of which are meant to be catered for within the 'Religious Education' systems of each school area. RE is still taught as a 'lesson' up to exam standard. That is certainly how I learnt the words and tunes of so many hymns. As far as Jerusalem goes. I feel the words don't mean much on their own but with that wonderfully confidant Victorian music, it would be difficult not to be moved by hearing it sung en masse . . . have you ever been/or heard the 'Last Night of the Proms' from the Royal Albert Hall and large parks around the UK when Jerusalem and Land of Hope and Glory etc are sung by the thousands in the audience? It may be considered very 'jingoistic' by the nay-sayers but it is a truly rousing sound. Below is an extract from the Last Night of the Proms. I hope it doesn't make your fillings tingle . . .luckily I, unlike millions of my countrymen have never needed any 'work' on my teeth so my head is quite amalgam-free. ;-) Here is a link that might be useful: Last Night of the Proms
