Marian Gruev and I wrote a Broadway musical
about Sherlock Holmes called
Baker Street,
and in it was a song which became
actually a Top 40 hit
called A Married Man.
It was sung by Richard Burton,
well when I say sung,
and I don't want to knock a Top 40 hit,
but he kind of talked it,
a married man, a married man,
how wonderful to be a sold a lot of records,
but I'd like to do this

A happy man, contented man,
