  Wrong band on the booklet: Ike Willis must be added to the line-up listed (FZ presents IW in DOTB).

Now that I'm older
Got a place in the town, babe
Got a chin on my shoulder
'N' it keeps growing down 'n' down 'n' down
I'm scared of the future (should be, I'm horny and lonely)
'N' I wish I was dead
(
Mattie told Hattie)
I wanna be dead instead
(shit)
I wanna be dead instead

  'Mattie told Hattie' is a line from the 1965 hit song Wooly Bully by Sam The Sham And The Pharaohs. Here is it.
WOOLY BULLY (Domingo Samudio)


Uno, dos, one, two, tres, quatro
Matty told Hatty about a thing she saw.
Had two big horns and a wooly jaw.
Wooly bully, wooly bully.
Wooly bully, wooly bully, wooly bully.
Hatty told Matty, "Let's don't take no chance.
Let's not be L-seven, come and learn to dance."
Wooly bully, wooly bully
Wooly bully, wooly bully, wooly bully.
Matty told Hatty, "That's the thing to do.
Get you someone really to pull the wool with you."
Wooly bully, wooly bully.
Wooly bully, wooly bully, wooly bully.
  Interesting to note, that the album Wooly Bully was also on MGM label (MGM E/SE-4297)
  For a detailed stuff sorta
  "Wooly Bully makes Sam The Sham & The Pharaohs one of the hottest acts in the country and those wild Middle Eastern costumes they wear for all their in-person performances makes them the most colorful group in the land. The impact of the outfits is more than evident on the full-color cover of this album. In spite of the Middle Eastern ring to the name of the group, all of the members are from the southern half of the United States.
  Sam's real name is Domingo Samudio and he's from Dallas, Texas. He's a Navy veteran who attended Arlington State College in Texas and developed an interest in music and began to work semi-professionally while in school. He sang and played a rented organ with many groups in and around. his native Dallas, and finally purchased an organ of his own and went on the road."

  You might add, though, the Frank quote concerning the song. I forget where it is. He said something like it's every musicians dream that a song like Wooly Bully could be written on a paper lunch bag during recess.
