Songs Covered Include
- "Gloria"
- "If the House is a Rockin'..."
- "In the Midnight Hour" (The Rock Bottom Remainders performed this song during an appearance on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Host Craig Ferguson—himself the best-selling author of Between the Bridge and the River—played the drums. Just before the performance, he joked that "the only reason wanted to write a book was so that he could play with this band." Dave Barry was also the first guest on the show.)
- "Louie Louie" (Matt Groening claims he uses the "explicit" interpretation of the lyrics and Dave Barry claimed that it was so filthy that the U.S. Constitution should be amended to prohibit it.)
- "Rockaway Beach"
- "Stand By Me" Ben E King version
- "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'"
- "Wild Thing" (In one broadcast of Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!, Barry revealed this song as a band inside joke, since Roy Blount always mistimes his single vocal line: "You move me.")
- "You Ain't Goin' Nowhere"
- "You Can't Judge a Book by its Cover"
- "You May Be Right"
