Keepin' your head above water
Making a wave when you can
Temporary layoffs
Good times
Easy crazy rip-offs
Good times
Scratchin' and surviving
Good times
Shuckin’ and jivin’
Good times
Ain't we lucky we got 'em
Good times

He died back in August.  I am curious why the news is just coming out now.  He was such a good actor
