Robert Hunter has posted the lyrics of The Song Remains in his journal, so I've taken the opportunity to update that.

7 January 2003
Thanks to Norbert Jung sending me the tape of Bo Diddley's performace with the Dead on 25 March 1972, I've updated a number of those songs (as best I can, given the underlying quality of the audience recording): Wo Wow Hey Hey, Take It All Off, Slow Blues, Pollution and Eighteen Children (note that many of the titles are inventions used on tapelists: any help in identifying the originals would be great.)

Thanks also to Norbert, I've added Little Bunny Foo Foo. I've also updated Do You Wanna Dance? and one or two other songs.
