The Lyrics
Wallow in Trinket Hoard
When you have come back
From all your sales calls,
Wallow in trinket hoard.
They're not gold, but they're waiting
For you to kneel down and feel 'em,
So wallow in your trinket hoard.
You've been to the bank; you can buy another load.
No deadbeat, you always pay.
But bereft your checkbook if you keep on
Wallowin' in trinket hoard.
Keep it up, you can't pay your bills,
Wallowin' in trinket hoard.
You will be in receivership in no time,
Wallowin' in trinket hoard.
You have got to give up the way you live it up,
Wallowin' in trinket hoard.
Your creditors are waiting
To send you to debtor's prison—
Swallowin' as the clink's whore.
When you have come back
From all your sales calls,
Wallow in trinket hoard.
They're not gold, but they're waiting
For you to kneel down and feel 'em,
So wallow in your trinket hoard.
You've been to the bank; you can buy another load.
No deadbeat, you always pay.
But bereft your checkbook if you keep on
Wallowin' in trinket hoard.
Keep it up, you can't pay your bills,
Wallowin' in trinket hoard.
You will be in receivership in no time,
Wallowin' in trinket hoard.
You have got to give up the way you live it up,
Wallowin' in trinket hoard.
Your creditors are waiting
To send you to debtor's prison—
Swallowin' as the clink's whore.

Hey JB --- if you're from New England, and if you're about my age....then....you'll know that this parody is obviously about Ruby Vine and Choo-Choo Vine and UNDERGROUND RAILROAD SALVAGE !!!
JD, I am from New England but more advanced in age. I've been in CA since 1980. Don't know about Ruby Vine. . . .
ALL HAIL the Holy Family: Ruby, Choo-Choo, and Roberta... There's a Wal-Mart in our area where Railroad Salvage used to be. Call that progress? Not by my lights...
Yes, certainly fits, trust me I know better than anyone!!! I really got a laugh from this one - sent it on to select others who would appreciate it as well
If this song is directed towards CHOO CHOO ViNE, then yes it would fit... but her new game is not to purchase store items but to buy CHILDREN, after she kidnapped my own daughter for 15 years and got away with it because of her money.... well now she thinks she is above the law and can get away with anything, her new project going for the GREAT grandchildren now... Maybe not appropriate comment for the song but I feel people should know out there what these type of people get away with.... and can still walk the street.
