"Mighty Denny" - by Bob Parsons
The latest Player’s production needed a little tweek.
With money tight and the virus out they needed a good week.
Who do they call when the play would need a little dressing
The keller’s come though with then there aint no messing
Denisinson came by to give it a try but his heart was not in it.
Found two old people with problems to solve so he sued with hopes to winit.
Caroline came by to take a look, she looked a little dizzy
Have you met her family, seen her job she is far too busy.
Let’s call Sophie, she’s been around and can run the board.
But she’s gone to college seen the world and theatre makes her bored.
Nick is here outta college he would make the play to throb.
I can’t go he said, I graduated from school and have to find a job.
That means we are through I see no hope we might as well quit.
Who do we know that’s been around that might be a good fit
How about Bob Parsons, he is always a first class winner
We called him he can’t come, he has to make Beryl’s dinner
Doom is lurking around each corner nook and cranny
Somebody said, we can get a kid and a dog and do Annie
Panic was there and decided to call an oldie, Jennie Browning
Jennie they said,, we need some help I feel the place is drowning
She took the phone, with authority, like a banker’s teller
Don’t talk to me, do what we did, go and get Denny Keller
Great idea they said let’s get together and call to get help from the king.
The call was too late for he never heard the telephone ring.
Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light.
And somewhere men are laughing and somewhere children roam
But there is no joy in Maysville, - Mighty Denny has gone home
