Lyrics:
CM: I think that it might be appropriate for us To introduce ourselves individually to you My name is Chad Mitchell And I'm from Spokane, Washington JF: My name is Joe Frazier, and I'm from Lebanon, Pennsylvania Uh, Lebanon is in, is situated in one of the most fertile valleys in the East Coast MK: My name is Mike Kobluk And I come the great Canadian Southwest And I come from a town called Trail, British Columbia And it's noted for its lead-zinc smelter which is world-known It's the biggest in the world JF: Well, uh, everybody knows that in Pennsylvania We've a great many steel mines and steel mills and things And Lebanon has one of the largest one's there It's my home town MK: Trail is not a one-industry town, you know Uh, Trail also is the center for the Elephant brand fertilizer which is No, this is true No, really, no This is true, though We have uh-uh-uh a company that makes nothing but Elephant brand fertilizer And it's the biggest, biggest company of its kind in the whole world
JF: Ah well, Lebanon, Pennsylvania is right near Hershey, Pennsylvania You've all heard of that and uh That's where they make all the chocolate And there are more candy bars made there Than any other place in the whole country MK: Trail is also noted Because last year the Trail Smoke Eaters Hockey Team Won the World Hockey Championships over in Sweden JF: The amateur hockey championships MK: The World Hockey Championships over in Sweden Yes, they won CM: Guess I forgot to mention that Spokane, Washington Is the apple, cherry and blue-leaf cabbage center Of the entire state
I was born about ten thousand years ago There ain't nuthin' in this world that I don't know I saw Peter, Paul and Moses playin' ring-around-the-roses And I'll whup the guy that says it isn't so
Well, I'm just a lonesome traveler, a great historical bum Highly educated through history I have come I built the Rock of Ages, it was in the year oh one And that's about the biggest thing that man has ever done
I saw Adam and Eve driven from the door I'm the guy that picked the fig leaves that they wore And from behind the bushes peepin' saw the apple they was eatin' And I swear that I'm the one that ate the core
Now, I built the Garden of Eden, it was in the year oh two Joined the apple-pickers union, and I always paid my due I'm the man that signed the contract to raise the risin' sun And that's about the biggest thing that man has ever done
I taught Samson how to use his mighty hand I showed Columbus to this happy land And for Pharaoh's little kiddies I built all the pyramiddies And to the Sahara carried all the sand
Now, I was straw boss on the pyramids and the Tower of Babel, too I opened up the ocean, let the mighty children through I fought a million battles, and I never lost a one And that's about the biggest thing that man has ever done
I taught Solomon his little ABC's I'm the first one that ate Limburger cheese And while floating down the bay with Methuseleh one day I saw his whiskers floating in the breeze
Now, I fought the revolution that set this country free It was me and a couple of Indians that dumped the Boston tea I won the Battle of Valley Forge and the Battle of Bully Run And that's about the biggest thing that man has ever done
Now, Queen Elizabeth she fell in love with me We were married in Milwaukee secretly But I got tired and shook her and ran off with General Hooker To go shootin' skeeters down in Tennessee
Now, I was born about ten thousand years ago There is nuthin' in this world that I don't know I saw Peter, Paul and Moses playin' ring-around-the-roses And I'll whup the guy that says it isn't so
Well, I'm just a lonesome traveler, a great historical bum Highly educated through history I have come I built the Rock of Ages, it was in the year oh one And that's about the biggest thing that man has ever done
Well, I'm just a lonesome traveler, a great historical bum Highly educated through history I have come I built the Rock of Ages, it was in the year oh one And that's about the biggest thing that man has ever done
