Subject: Unknown 80's Song.

Anyone remember a song that had some lyrics like this:
"... young lawyers in love.." and references to vacationing in the USSR.
Not much to go by but I think it came out sometime within 1981 - 1984. Male singer if I remember correctly.

It's called "Lawyers in Love" by Jackson Browne.
I can't keep up with what's been going on
I think my heart must just be slowing down
Among the human beings in their designer jeans
Am I the only one who hears the screams
And the strangled cries of lawyers in love
God sends his spaceships to America, the beautiful
They land at six o'clock and there we are, the dutiful
Eating from TV trays, tuned into to Happy Days
Waiting for World War III while Jesus slaves
To the mating calls of lawyers in love
Last night I watched the news from Washington, the capitol
The Russians escaped while we weren't watching them, like Russians will
Now we've got all this room, we've even got the moon
And I hear the U.S.S.R. will be open soon
As vacation land for lawyers in love
