THE TUMBLING BOX
PAT WALSTON SAYS HE'S A TUMBLING MAN,
BUT LOSING HIS BOX IS NOT PART OF THE PLAN.
I'LL BE GLAD WHEN ALL THIS STEALING STOPS,
FOR I'M GETTING TIRED OF LOSING MY TUMBLING BOX.
LATELY IT'S HAPPEN EVERYDAY RIGHT STEADY,
THE THING HAS DISAPPERED THREE TIMES ALREADY.
AND I'M WEARING OUT ALL MY SHOES AND SOCKS,
LOOKING HIGH AND LOW FOR MY TUMBLING BOX.
A FRIEND TOLD PAT HOW TO MAKE IT STOP.
HE SAID," WRITE YOUR NAME ON THE TUMBLING BOX".
THE BOX HAS A NAME NOW, THANKS TO A FRIEND.
SO NOW OLD PAT CAN SMILE AGAIN.
NOW PAT SAYS, "I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO".
THERE IS NO ONE AROUND, NO ONE TO TALK TO.
THEY ARE AVOIDING ME LIKE A MAN WITH THE POX.
BUT I DON'T CARE,"I'VE GOT MY TUMBLING BOX".
