at 20 cents each

 



There is a fragrance in the country

doesn’t cross the city lines

I doubt that it’s the tulips

I’d say it’s the bovines.

 

There’s a tractor on the four-lane

with a driver chewing hay,

doesn’t hear the line of honking

doesn’t know he’s in the way,

 

On the corner little Suzie

selling lemonade she peeled

when a city boy came passing

around the tractor he did squeal,

 

When the Chevy hit the Dixie cups

they couldn’t have flown higher

Suzie quickly added up 

said, “Yippie, I retire.”
