lirik lagu monty harper - the legend of old rip
who stole the show at the courthouse dedication?
whose sad strange fate was well~observed by all?
who was the town~folks’ gift to a future generation?
who found himself enshrined in the courthouse wall?
old rip, named for rip van winkle
took a nap in that cornerstone
for thirty one years he was sealed inside it
for thirty one years he was all alone, all alone
old rip, old rip the h~rny toad. old rip, old rip the h~rny toad
who dangled like a leaf when the stone was opened?
what icon did not seem to have survived?
then who twisted ’round and heard three thousand voices?
shouting out, “he’s alive, yes he’s alive!”
old rip, named for rip van winkle
took a nap in that cornerstone
for thirty one years he was sealed inside it
for thirty one years he was all alone
some folk claim it was merely a joke
a sleight of hand, meant to deceive
some folk call rip’s revival a hoax
but me and eastland, texas ~ we believe!
who toured this land from dallas to st. louis?
who met president coolidge eye to eye?
who rests in peace at the eastland county courthouse?
who reminds us we can triumph if we try?
old rip, named for rip van winkle
took a nap in that cornerstone
for thirty one years he was sealed inside it
for thirty one years he was all alone, all alone
old rip, old rip the h~rny toad. old rip, old rip the h~rny toad
old rip, old rip, old rip, old rip
old rip, old rip, old rip, old rip
old rip, old rip, old rip, old rip
old rip, old rip, old rip, old rip, old rip!
old rip, old rip the h~rny toad!
