Dr. Hook update continued

Well, according to dr.hook com ,
There is still an incarnation of the group touring....

Each of Dr. Hook’s 2 co-front-men Dennis Locorriere and Ray Sawyer currently still tour, though separately. Both play quite extensively overseas (mostly Europe), as Dr. Hook is still more popular outside the US. Each does a set of predominantly Hook classics, as per audience demand. Both tour with at least one former member of the Dr. Hook band, in their current band. Billy Francis playing with Ray, and Rod Smarr with Dennis. Each performs some hits that the other sang on the original recordings. Since Dennis did sing on MORE of the band's hits, Ray "covers" more "Dennis" songs.
I
just remember getting blasted and listening to dr. hook...what a time that used to be....

Sylvia's mother says "Sylvia's busy"
"Too busy to come to the phone"
Sylvia's mother says "Sylvia's tryin'"
"To start a new life of her own"
Sylvia's mother says "Sylvia's happy"
"So why don't you leave her alone?"

CHORUS
And the operator says "40 cents more for the next 3 minutes"
Ple-ease Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her
I'll only keep her a while
Please Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell 'er goodbye

Sylvia's mother says "Sylvia's packin'"
"She's gonna be leavin' today"
Sylvia's mother says "Sylvia's marryin' "
"A fella down Galveston way"
Sylvia's mother says "Please don't say nothin'"
"To make her start cryin' and stay"

CHORUS

Sylvia's mother says "Sylvia's hurryin' "
"She's catchin' the nine o'clock train"
Sylvia's mother says "Take your umbrella"
"cause Sylvie, it's startin' to rain"
And Sylvia's mother says "thank you for callin'"
"And, sir, won't you call back again?"

CHORUS

Tell her goodbye

FADE
Please
Tell her goodbye
