Buoys was released in 1971 under the Gusto Label and can be found in print on

Actually... it was originally released on the Scepter record label.

The song was written and produced by Rupert Holmes of "Pina Colada" fame.

Some Rough Lyrics.... I do have 'em all at home:

Hungry as hell no food to eat and Joe said that he would sell his soul for just
a piece of meat....

I must have blacked out just 'bout then... 'cause the very next thing that I
could see was the light of the day a-gain.

...but nobody ever got around to finding.... Timothy...

Timothy, Timothy.... Joe was looking at you... Timothy, Timothy, Gawd what
did we do-o-o-o

I believe that this snippet is from "D.O.A." by Bloodrock
(early 70's)
