Mrs. Robinson
Paul Simon

Simon & Garfunkel
The Graduate soundtrack
1968

Jen always liked to sing this one and I never got off on it
but I got an MP3 and the real version is a bit better than the
Central Park version, so here it is.  Perhaps It'll go into my
repertoire.

Sitting on a sofa on a Sunday afternoon
Goin' to the candidate's debate
Laugh about it shout about it when you've got to choose
Every way you look at it you lose

CHORUS
Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio
A nation turns its lonely eyes to you
woo woo woo
What's that you say Mrs. Robinson
Joltin' Joe has left and gone away
Hey hey hey hey hey hey
