The most lucrative song ever!!!

"To think that all of this poured forth from a goofy, three-chord song—a mere 208 words, written about being lazy and getting drunk."

So, there's still hope for one of us to make it big.....no?

I'd known that the traditional "Happy Birthday" song was copyrighted, but I had no idea that it generates $2M a year in reveue! I do know that I am delinquent in my royalty payments for that one.

I got so sick of playing that, I took it out of my lyric binder.

After a while, I started to cringe when someone would ask for it - that & some others. 

But good for ole Jimmy though!

I do like a success story. 

I do still play 'Come Monday' of his occasionally though.
