It could happen...

 

Calvin G. Rental

never owned a goat

Bought himself a red canoe

thought he’d like to float,

Put his name upon it

crossed the river wide

Questioned by the local police

upon the other side,

“Where’s your registration?”

“Show me some I.D.”

Calvin didn’t understand

Just what the trouble be,

“It say’s that it’s a rental

It’s printed on the side.

You should have changed the color

cuz red is hard to hide.”

I don’t want any trouble

Just thought I’d like to float

As soon as I can get back home

I’ll get myself a goat.
