Gary Divan is not very tall, But in a fight he'll never fall. Marie Hawkins is really gone, Especially when she's with John. Mike Thompson never takes a beating, Except when he gets a ticket for speeding. Carolyn Buck is always around; She's a girl with both feet on the ground. Charles Mercer is tall but not stout; The Pine Room is his favorite hangout. Glenda Tellier pays attention in class; She never gives the teachers sass. San Wynn lives on Kickapoo road; When work is handed out, he takes his load. Erma Hawkins lives on a farm; She's a girl with a lot of charm. 12
