One On The Right

	  		 
AThere  once was a musical troupe, 
 
a  Dpickin' singin' Afolk group, 
 
They  Dsang the mountain Aballads 
 
and the folk  songs of our Eland, 
 
They were  Along on musical ability, 
 
folk s  Dthought they would go Afar, 
 
But  Dpolitical incompatiAbility, 
 
Eled  to their downAfall, 
 
? 
 
Well the  Done on the right was Aon the left, 
 
And the  Done in the middle was Aon the right, 
 
And the  Done on the left was Ain the middle, 
 
And the  Eguy in the rear was a AMethodist, 
 
? 
 
This musical  aggregation, 
 
Dtoured  the entire Anation, 
 
DSinging  traditional Aballads, 
 
and the folk  songs of our Eland, 
 
They  perAformed with great virtuosity, 
 
and  Dsoon they were the Arage, 
 
But  Dpolitical aniAmosity, 
 
preEvailed  upon the Astage, 
 
? 
 
Well the  Done on the right was Aon the left, 
 
And the  Done in the middle was Aon the right, 
 
And the  Done on the left was Ain the middle, 
 
And the  Eguy in the rear burned his Adriver's  license, 
 
 
Well the  curtain had ascended, 
 
?nd a Dhush fell on the  Acrowd, 
 
As  Dthousands there were Agathered, 
 
?o hear the folk songs of our  Eland, 
 
But they  Atook their politics seriously, 
 
?nd that Dnight at the concert  Ahall, 
 
As the Daudience  watched deAliriously, 
 
?EThey had a free for  Aall, 
 
? 
 
Well the  Done on the right was Aon the bottom, 
 
And the  Done in the middle was Aon the top, 
 
And the  Done on the left got a Abroken arm, 
 
And the  Eguy in the rear said, AOh dear, 
 
? 
 
Now this  should be a lesson, 
 
if you  Dplan to start a Afolk group, 
 
DDon't  go mixin' Apolitics, 
 
with the  folk songs of our Eland, 
 
Just  Awork on harmony and 'viction, 
 
and  Dplay your banjo Awell, 
 
And if you  Dhave political conAvictions, 
 
Ekeep  them to yourAself, 
 
? 
 
Well the  Done on the left Aworks in a bank, 
 
And the  Done in the middle drives a Atruck, 
 
And the  Done on the right's an all Anight  D.J., 
And  the Eguy in the rear got  Adrafted.
