When George's father asked George about who chopped down the cherry tree,
George replied, "I can not tell a lie, I did it."

Broke 'n' Narrow
Oh New York City
The devil fools
with the best laid plan.
Swing low Wall Street Banker
You got no spare change
So broke you feel strange
And now the moment
is all that it meant.
New York City, you got
the weight of your bankers
That's breaking your back.
Your Escalade
has got a tire in a pot hole
And a wheel on a rack
Oh New York City
Saxophone playing
as subway trains pass
Widows down in New York City.
See the old folks
have to sell dope
Hear the screamin'.
Don't it take you down, homey?
New York City, you got
the weight on your shoulders
That's breaking your back.
Your Escalade
has got a tire in a pot hole
And a wheel on a rack
Oh New York City.
Can I see you
and shake your hand?
Make friends up in New York City.
I'm from a new land
I come to you
and see all this ruin
What are you doing New York City?
You got the last of the unions
to help you along
What's going wrong?
The devil fools
with the best laid plan.

Northern Man
Northern man
better keep ya' head
Don't forget
what the good book said
Northern change
trickled out at last
damnyankee banks

Northern man
I saw poverty
and I saw black
Tall pent houses
and tenement shacks.
Northern man

pay 'em back?
I heard screamin'

How long? How long?
Northern man

Don't forget

Northern change

Now your finances

My Daytona
Oo my pretty pretty pair, pretty pair
Where we gonna ride this time, Daytona?
Oo you make my single thump, my motor run
Gun it coming off of the line, Daytona!
Never gonna stop, give it up, such a muddy need
I always get it up with a touch of the German keyed
My-ee ey-vo ge-3 ahee woo hoo!
Ma ma my Frey Daytona
Come a little closer, over here
Close enough to shift a gear, Daytona
Keep a little mystery, The Knack for me
Ram own 's down the road in my Daytona
Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty neat
I always get it up from a touch of Das Deutschlandlied
My-ee ey-vo ge-3 ahee woo hoo!
Ma ma my Frey Daytona
Se-cur-ity Frey Daytona
When ya gonna get to me, get to me
Is it just a matter of time, Daytona?
Is it a destiny, a destiny
Or is it just a game in my mind, Daytona‽
Never gonna stop, give it up, such a dirty mind
I always get it up from a twist of grip, Deutscher kind
My-ee ey-vo ge-3 ahee woo hoo!

Whoa Woe Black Sheep Volvo
With eyes wide open
& not a sheep
flockin' after truck
& truck before you
turnin' left onto 10th street
Not alas
need my Steibel
blast you
back across a lane & a half
back to side street
your bleatin' flock came from
to ruminate your drivin' crud.

Sky Dust
Gray sky drop down
round Greenville town
white dust of snow
spray all around
Snow drifted part
from town so crude
lift from my heart
a day most rude
