Subject: ADD: It Is a Beauty (Garden Hose Song)
I have almost all the lyrics. My Cousin Taught me the song years ago and I never forgot it except for one small verse. So here are the lyrics as I was taught them.....

Garden Hose Song:
Not Many a men are lucky enough to have one as long as mine.
The thing is as old as I am, But still it's doing fine.
Many a times, I was afraid it was going on the blink.
But after close inspection, it was always in the Pink!

I treat it very carefully, don't leave it lying about.
Before I put it away, I remember to shake it out.
If I should ever get to weak to get the think thing to work,
I've instructed Niki and Ramona, To squeeze it till it squirts!

Chorus:

Woah! ain't it a beauty! Everybody says it handles well.
Woah! Ain't t a beauty! If you don't believe me you can go to...


Chris Came calling one day to tell me he had heard,
That mine was bigger than his was, But he didn't believe a word.
I bet him a buck, Took him outside, and laid it in the street.
He couldn't believe when he saw it, it was over a hundred Feet!!!

Here is my missing verse...I know it ends like this...

...and I'be written my name in a snowbank, that was over a block away! (but the song sings fine without it)


Chorus:
Woah! ain't it a beauty!
Rolling across the street and over the grass!
Woah! Ain't it a beauty!
If you don't believe me stick it up your.....


Though I must admit it hasn't been used in four or five months or more.
It's hanging there just as ready as it's ever been before.
You can be assured that I'll be using it now for years,
cause it's the finest length....of Garden hose....they ever sold at Sears!!!

I hope this helps you guys out. if you have any questions...email me at Schmoopie3928@hotmail.com

Enjoy!!!
