Songfacts®:

  • This is a story about two con men who form a partnership with their sister Charlotte Anne. A journey through venality and human gullibility, it is also a cynical commentary on the politicians who allowed the banks to take us all for a ride, and were well rewarded for it. Another fine effort by one old codger with his guitar, as the man himself told us: "[It] springs, in part, from the same source as "I'm Looking For A Word That Rhymes With Banker." >>>
