The Unhappy Wanderer 
The Unhappy Wanderer (Larry Arno, NYC) 
I hate to go a-wandering, along the mountain track For every step I take I know, my pack will break my back.
 Fal-de-ree[1], fal-de-ra, fal-de-ree, fal-de-ra-ha-ha-ha-ha Fal-de-ree, my pack will break my back

(style note - final chorus should do the ha-ha parts in a loud insane screech) 
[1] I learned it as "Mis-er-ree! etc. 
To the tune of "I Love to Go A-Wandering"-XX
