When there came a decree
From the land of the free
The Reverend would get up his dander
It made him so mad
When the Government said
That our clinic was going to Gander.
With a voice that was loud
He beckoned a crowd
The streets quickly filled with the throng
When they looked at the queue
The Government knew
The decisions they made were all wrong.
As he gave out the word
The message was heard
The message was sent to the host
And the Honorable Paul
A great light he saw
As he traveled along near the coast.
With the minister gone
One more came along
But the Reverend would keep up the pressure
He said "I will fight
From morning to night
Until he reverses this measure."
When the word got around
The answer was found
Now our government's no longer the sinner
When twas all said and done
The battle was won
And our town is once more the big winner.
To the folks on the hill
Who manage the till
When in doubt, you don't know what to do
One thing you have found
You can't fool around
With the Reverend Art and his crew.
