Carving

The Young New Mexican Puppeteer

In a town near Albequerqe

Lived a most concerned young boy

He said lately I have noticed

Folks don't live with peace and joy

With frowns and worry on their faces

They're lost and don't know where to go

He said I'll get the people straightened

By putting on a puppet show

The young New Mexican puppeteer

He saw the people all lived in fear

He thought that maybe they'd listen to

A puppet telling them what to do

You know he got some string and he got some wood

He did some carving and he was good

And folks came running so they could hear

First he carved out young Abe Lincoln

Abe will teach 'em civil rights

Then a king named Martin Luther

So they'd recall his peacefull fight

Old Mark Twain, his wit and wisdom

Will surely show them life is fun

But he smiled with satisfaction

When the prince of peace was done

Now his puppet shows were clever

And he made the people laugh

When he got across the message

To walk along lifes open path

They built him his own puppet theatre

Decked out with spotlights yellow and red

And then they wrote him up in all the papers

And this is what the story said

It said...

He thought that maybe they would listen to
