Happy Homestead 12 songs on the paradox of the human condition... ...and a waltz
The Wooden Leg
Tim had a wooden leg for years
As all who knew him knew
Chopped short quite neat below the knee
As cancer cells surged thru
His body needed 420
used daily for the pain
The Red Dog Hall kept him alive
And thought it kept him sane
Munchausen was his only guide
Munchausen made a lonely bride
Munchausen could not stem the tide
Took the answers to the other side
In Quantrell's town he laid down roots
Wrote the story of his lies
Passed tales around the campfire of
Suffering and strife
We all chipped in to help him out
Although he never asked
Worked side by side for all those years
Shared many of our tasks
Now sometimes on a winters night
Icicles click and glow
Down Massachusetts street is heard
Boots crunching in the snow
Munchausen was his only guide
Munchausen made a lonely bride
Munchausen could not stem the tide
Took the answers to the other side
