Notes

Robert Hunter comments on this song in Box Of Rain: Lyrics 1965 - 1993;

The official theme for the final Hooker's Ball in 1978. The San Francisco city council decided such an annual event was unseemly and refused to rent it's Brook's Hall facility to Margo St. James's COYOTE prostitutes' support group anymore. A commercial venture called the Exotic Erotic Ball has taken it's place and seems to be OK with them.
