Give A Damn³ / Swingin' Gate Dorough-Scharf (2:55) / Farrell-Farrell-Meyers-Myers (2:12) Mercury 72831, 7/68 BB Based on an idea created by Young and Rubicam for the Urban Coalition (New York City)

Note: When Spanky played Give A Damn on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour (12/22/68), President Nixon was one of many
callers outraged, I say OUTRAGED, by the song. John Lindsay used the song for his New York City mayoral run.
Paul Stookey recorded a song about this song.
