Mudville
Well, We now call this place
Mudville in The Devils Den
It's so muddy all our Vehicles
Look like we've been to
A Mud Slinging Tournament.
The road is so bad we all
Slide around and they have
Made deep rutts in the road
From all the running in and out
At all times of Day and Night.
The rain and bad weather just
Keeps on coming each week
We need someone to fix the road
And really do some work on it
And add a Ton of Gravel.
But , Here in Mudville there's
No one to care, as long as
They don't have to live in here
And drive through the mud
Each and every day.
