tommy cash (usa) - the young new mexican puppeteer lyrics

[verse 1]
in a town near albuquerque
lived a most concerned young boy
he said, “lately, i have noticed
folks don’t live with peace and joy
with frowns and worries in their faces
they’re lost and don’t know where to go
i’ll try to get the people straightened
by putting on a puppet show”

[chorus]
the young new mexican puppeteer
he thought that people all lived in fear
he thought that maybe they’d listen to
a puppet telling them what to do
he got some string and he got some wood
he did some carving and he was good
folks came running so they could hear
the young new mexican puppeteer

[verse 2]
first, he carved out young abe lincoln
abe would teach them civil rights
then a king named martin luther
so they’d recall his peaceful fight
old mark twain, his wit and wisdom
will surely show them life is fun
but he smiled with satisfaction
when the prince of peace was done
[verse 3]
now, his puppet shows were clever
and he made the people laugh
and they wrote him up in the papers
and this is what the story said:

[chorus]
the young new mexican puppeteer
he saw that people all lived in fear
he thought that maybe they’d listen to
a puppet telling them what to do
he got some string and he got some wood
he did some carving and he was good
and folks came running so they could hear
the young new mexican puppeteer

[outro chorus]
the young new mexican puppeteer
he saw that people all lived in fear
he thought that maybe they’d listen to
a puppet telling them what to do
he got some string and he got some wood
he did some carving and he was good
and folks came running so they could hear
the young new mexican puppeteer
