We're All In This Together
We had a party on the village square
to take up money for some needy folks--
a grand community affair
in shade beneath the sprawling oaks.

To take up money for some needy folks,
Preacher John brought a mess of fish to fry
in shade beneath the sprawling oaks,
and ladies from the church baked apple pie.

Preacher John brought a mess of fish to fry,
determined to reach established goal,
and ladies from the church baked apple pie,
while townfolk dropped cash in donation bowl.

Determined to reach established goal,
Mayor Perkins made a speech to implore
the townfolk to drop cash in donation bowl,
then sit and savor sweet iced tea and more.

Mayor Perkins made a speech to implore
us all to give for such a worthy cause.
We sat and savored sweet iced tea and more,
as Uncle Joe played fiddle to wild applause.

We all gave for such a worthy cause--
a grand community affair,
as Uncle Joe played fiddle to wild applause.
What a party we had on village square!
