- Comments
- There are various parodies like The Only Hippie in Muskogee and Asshole from El Paso and answer songs, for example Hippie from Mississippi. Also, this seems to be the song with the most Swedish adoptions (so far 12 known to us), some quite closely translated and others 'taking the piss' out of it.
