Only one source. Song didn't chart, was only a B-side, no non-trivial coverage. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 00:12, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep - There are sources, they are listed in the notes. It's a fairly famous song (most of all among Parrotheads) even if it didn't make the charts. Few novelty songs make the charts, but that doesn't make them less well know among an artist like Buffett's songlist (who is, in a way, a living novelty). The song is part of Jimmy_Buffett. The article needs cleaning up but should be kept. -- Cozret (talk) 11:10, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
 * There's one secondary source and a primary source. Do you really think that's enough for a full article? Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 16:08, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Since the choice is currently between delete or keep, yes. Now, if you believe the content should be merged with another article, you can still put in for that after your delete fails. --Cozret (talk) 20:49, 18 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep notable song. --Lost Fugitive (talk) 17:35, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Songs are often enough notable without charting, especially for performer-songwriters whose main appeal is ouside the singles-buying demographic. Enough current sourcing to sustain article, though expansion certainly possible. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 19:44, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. Multiple Google Books hits indicate that the song is well known in popular culture. It appeared on Buffett's first greatest hits album Songs You Know by Heart and was played at every one of his concerts for many years. I just found a good source to add to the article, too. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 19:50, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. I agree with Ten Pound Hammer that the article needs more sources. But it's a very notable song, being extremely popular dispite "only being a B-side". Geeky Randy (talk) 01:16, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
