I think it was both. I have both vinyl and CD version with "Zanz Can't
Dance" while later copies are titled "Vanz Can't Dance" ..."but he'll steal
your money" - John's a real subtle guy.

As I remeber, Zaentz sued over Fogerty using his name in
the song, even though it had a different spelling, and won
that lawsuit also.
Later pressings of the album had an updated track listing
with "Vanz Can't Dance." I don't remember if the song
itsself was re-recorded or if only the title was changed.
