The Song "I Can't Survive" | A Parody on Obama by Cooyon Duhon (Cajun Humor)
No matter how rough times may get with politics and the economy, a little levity on occasions is like hot chicken soup for the weary soul.
I stumbled on a humorous parody online which changes the words, but uses the melody, of Gloria Gaynor's hit song of the 70s: I Can Survive.
Presenting Cooyon Duhon and his song entitled "I Can't Survive!". Get ready to bust a gut laughing! Enjoy!
