《The Young New Mexican Puppeteer》歌词

[00:00:00] The Young New Mexican Puppeteer - Modern Crooners United

[00:00:07] In a town called Albuquerque

[00:00:13] Lived a most concerned young boy.

[00:00:18] He said

[00:00:19] Lately I have noticed

[00:00:23] Folks don't live with peace and joy.

[00:00:29] With frowns and worries in their faces

[00:00:34] They're lost and don't know where to go.

[00:00:40] He said I'll get the people straightened

[00:00:45] By putting on a puppet show.

[00:00:50] The young New Mexican puppeteer

[00:00:53] He saw the people all lived in fear.

[00:00:55] He thought that maybe they listen to

[00:00:58] A puppet telling them what to do.

[00:01:01] Now he got some string and

[00:01:02] He got some wood

[00:01:03] He did some carving and he was good

[00:01:06] And folks came around so they could hear

[00:01:09] The young New Mexican puppeteer.

[00:01:21] First he carved out young Abe Lincoln

[00:01:26] He will teach them civil rights.

[00:01:32] Then a king named Martin Luther

[00:01:37] So they'd recall his peaceful fight.

[00:01:42] Old Mark Twain his wit and wisdom

[00:01:48] Will surely show them life is fun.

[00:01:54] But he smiled with satisfaction

[00:01:59] When the Prince of Peace was done.

[00:02:03] The young New Mexican puppeteer...

[00:02:06] He saw the people all lived in fear.

[00:02:09] He thought that maybe they listen to

[00:02:12] A puppet telling them what to do.

[00:02:14] He got some string and

[00:02:15] He got some wood

[00:02:17] He did some carving and he was good

[00:02:20] And folks came around so they could hear

[00:02:23] The young New Mexican puppeteer.

[00:02:35] Now his puppet shows were clever

[00:02:40] And he made the people laugh

[00:02:45] When he got across the message

[00:02:51] To walk along love's open path.

[00:02:56] He lived in his own puppet theatre

[00:03:02] Decked out with spotlights yellow and red.

[00:03:07] And then they wrote him all the papers

[00:03:12] And this is what the story said.

[00:03:17] It's the young New Mexican puppeteer

[00:03:20] He saw the people all lived in fear.

[00:03:23] He thought that maybe they listen to

[00:03:25] A puppet telling them what to do.

[00:03:28] He got some string and

[00:03:30] He got some wood

[00:03:31] He did some carving and he was good

[00:03:33] And folks came around so they could hear

[00:03:36] The young New Mexican puppeteer.

[00:03:50] He got some string and he got some wood
