Ely's Funeral Home

ELY'S FUNERAL HOME No studio recording known

Note: Written in 1969 for Child, according to Vini Lopez. The song was about a real funeral home (still operating in Neptune, NJ) that the band drove past every day between Bruce's house in Freehold where they were staying and rehearsals at Tinker West's surfboard factory. Lopez remembers the central rhyme as "Going back to Ely's / There we're gonna say our goodbyes."
