Once Upon A Time

Buy brown besoms buy them when they're new

Buy broom bessoms better never grew



Once upon a time we had a lead to follow

Well respected me used to show the way

Folks would follow on 'cause they believed the promise

Well respected men would never betray

Now look around it's hard to see integrity

You ask for direction and they don't know

Once upon a time the sun shine brightly

But once upon a time was a long time ago



Once upon a time we build a revolution

Big steel wheel roll around the world

Tin ships sailed and whaled and delivered

All the food necessary for the boys and girls

Then one day came a man with a mission

To take away everything they know

Once upon a time was a land for heroes

But once upon a time was a long time ago



Once upon a time things were so simple

You did a day's work you got a day's pay

It didn't come to much but it kept a wife and children

Burned in the lantern that light the way

Now all's left is the story of a memory

The real thing fades with a dying glow

Once upon a time was a land of plenty

But once upon a time was a long time ago
