Come and listen to a story 'bout a man named Bud,
Ninety-five and happy as a hog in the mud,
And then one day, he was chewin' on some food,
And in through the door come The Adios Dude.
Death, that is ...
Black Knight ...
Mr. D ....
Well, the first thing you know,
Bud's cryin' like a girl,
Death said, "You're the biggest pussy in the world."
Said, "Purgatory is the place you ought to be,"
So he pulled out his plug, and Buddy drew a Z.
Died, that is ...
Screwed the pooch ...
Bought the farm ....
Won't come back, now ... y'hea'
Truly embodying the American dream, he proved that anything is possible in this great country of ours. From his humble beginnings as a child farm laborer, he rose all the way up to being on 34 lists in The September Lee Jr.
