Mr. Tanner "Big" John Wallace sings the part of Mr. Tanner in this song about a "cleaner from a town in the Midwest". This song was a concert staple. When performing solo at benefits Harry would bring up people from the audience to sing John's part. As Harry frequently mentioned in concerts, this song was based on a concert review Harry read in the New York Times.   Mr. Tanner lyrics are from "Oh Holy Night". Fall on your knees Oh hear the angels voices oh night divine oh night oh night divine    Albums Short Stories (1973) Greatest Stories Live (1976) Gold Medal Collection (1988) Bottom Line Encore Collection (1998) Story of a Life (1999) Videos Book of Chapin (1995)  You are the Only Song Covers Lies and Legends (1984) Yesterday is Now - David Campbell (1997) Sons of Maxwell - a folk/celtic group from Canada.
