Mr. Merry cries in his coffin for days he says he can remember And through the town some pallbearers sing old songs of a beautiful And purple mountian
From every walk of life we´ve come to see the last great American
So may I now present you the speaker Friends he was a man of men, yeah a man of gold He had a (how do you say) ethical like sense That´s when the President started to giggle
Then the children gave the blessing Though the service weren´t half done Each of them sued the other one...for the last great American
Wait Time for my coffin Wait Time for my break Wait
Time for my coffin
Merry reaches up and we bow our heads Pulls the lid on down and his stone is read
Here lies our Merry The man with the heart so spent That in this day in age Is sick of living
Still judges argue letters And fabric comes undone For every daughter every son of the last great American
