I Spent Nine Days In The Downtown Los Angeles City Jail. The Judge Gave Me A Suspended Sentence And I Went To Work That Night - Wailed Just Like Nothing Happened. What Strucked Me Funny Though - I Laughed Real Loud When Several Movie Stars Came Up To The Bandstand While We Played A Dance Set And Told Me, When They Heard About Me Getting Caught With Marijuana, They Thought Marijuana Was A Chick. Woo Boy - That Really Fractured Me!

Some Of You Young Folks Been Saying To Me, "hey Pops, What You Mean 'what A Wonderful World'? How About All Them Wars All Over The Place? You Call Them Wonderful? And How About Hunger And Pollution? That Aint So Wonderful Either." Well How About Listening To Old Pops For A Minute. Seems To Me, It Aint The World That's So Bad But What We're Doin' To It. And All I'm Saying Is, See, What A Wonderful World It Would Be If Only We'd Give It A Chance. Love Baby, Love. That's The Secret, Yeah. If Lots More Of Us Loved Each Other, We'd Solve Lots More Problems. And Then This World Would Be A Gasser.
