The Young New Mexican Puppeteer

In a town near Albuquerque

lived a most concerned young boy.

He said

lately I have noticed

folks don't live with peace and joy.

With frowns and worries in 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 listen to

a puppet telling them what to do.

And now 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

the young New Mexican puppeteer.First he carved out young Abe Lincolnabe will teach 'em civil rights.

Then a king named Martin Luther

so they'd recall his peaceful 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.The young New Mexican puppeteer...Now his puppet show were clever

and he made the people laugh

when he got across the message

walk along love's open path.

He lived in 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.The young New Mexican puppeteer...
