It's the second "Bum Song". The first is on BA 5605 sung by Eddie Kirk. That song and "Hallelujah, I'm a Bum" are commonly found coupled on disk. You can hear all of these on YouTube.
I just picked up an electric Diamond Disc, #52384 by Kirk, with that combination. Good stuff.

The most I have spent is $25 but if you have the money and you want it badly and can afford it Go for it! What else is there to do? I tend to stay in the shallow end of the pool and keep looking. deals do come up every now and then for less than the prevailing winds!
Good luck collecting both machines and records we ( as an all inclusive we).
tend to be the only ones crazy enough to enjoy both
