4. Dirtiest Old Town. Fresno.
5. I Knew My Love. Until she threw me over for a tennis pro.
6. I Wish That I Was Never Wed. OK, you’ve heard this one, but now you know why.
7. It’s a Long Way to Kensington and Allegheny. But make a left turn at St. Adalbert’s Rectory, cross Aramingo and Frankford, and you’re there.

9. Smoggy Dew. Fresno, again.
10. Molly Maloneski. “Crying, pierogis and galumpkis, alive, alive, oh …”
