Bang the Drum All Day (I Don't Want to Work) - Words and music by Todd Rundgren / arr. Michael Story

Although it's been called a goofy novelty, this classic Todd Rundgren rock-and-roll favorite is perfect for your beginners. A hard driving rock beat with repeated eighths throughout sets the stage for a big sound in "Bang the Drum All Day."
