John Clarke in The Times:

The woes of the giant American mortgage group Fannie Mae should throw some welcome light on a record of the same name which briefly grazed the US top 40 in 1959. Written by, and sung in hoarse tones but with great gusto by the blues singer and harmonica player Buster Brown, the lyrics seem quite prescient:

Well, I want somebody
Tell me what’s wrong with me
I want somebody
Tell me what’s wrong with me
No, I ain’t in trouble
I’m in so much misery

Now, in more straitened times, with the title having more resonance than ever, the song is available as a ringtone at www.stlyrics.com and can be heard in full on The Golden Age of American Rock ‘n’ Roll Vol. 9 (Ace).

No wonder Fannie Mae was miserable. Buster Brown grew tired of waiting and cheated on her with Fannie Wood.
