1st.My”Greatest Notion”is that
“Direct The Show”will not blow the exacta.
2nd.”Officer Cally”may tally but
I’m gonna book”Van Hook”.
3rd.I’ll Pickett “East To Beast”
to get my”Money Mac”back.
4th.”Mama Marge”loom large
but I can see”Shewonttalktome”to be close.
5th.”We’ll See”will be hard to Beatie
maybe Runco can work his magic with “Marquet Classic”.
6th.The”Sea of Tranquility”has a “Hurricane Alert”
7th.”Teachintherelease”can fleece”El Lucerito”
and deliver some”Gold Fiber”in your pocket.
8th.”Run Rargan Run”can win for fun
but there’s “Always”Something”to be said for S Murdock.
