ROAD - RAVAGED VALLEY
(To the tune of “Red River Valley”)
In the valley I see they are working;
They are building a Throughway, they say,
It will cut ‘cross your yard and will just miss
Your split ranch, just twelve feet away.
Do not play by the craters they’re digging;
For the craters are big and they’re deep.
If you fall into one you’ll be buried,
And you don’t really need all that sleep.
Do not touch all those funny explosives;
Do not play with that dynamite cap.
Otherwise you will find like the Throughway,
You’ll be spread out all over the map.
