My question is when/where can I find a copy of Wicked Girls to put on my Ipod? It needs to be a road trip song and Pennsic is coming. :)

Given enough time (and energy, of course), this song could turn into another Young Man Mulligan.

so the next question - can you please identify the sources of the girls in the original version of the song?

Yes some of the lost girls are obvious, Alice, Dorothy, Wendy, Lucy and Susan are easy.

But who are Mandy, Mia, Deborah, Kate, Mary and Kaia?
