Mennonite Rider
By
Ramon N. Johnson (July 30, 2006)
Sung to the tune of Midnight Rider words and music by the Allman Brothers Band
Well, I don't know the words their speaking,
And a yellow shirt is what I'm seeking.
And I need one more silver needle,
But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no,
Not gonna let "em catch the Mennonite Rider.
And I've just about reached my limit,
And I'm behind about eight minutes,
And I need one more silver needle,
But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no,
Not gonna let "em catch the Mennonite Rider.
And you know my testosterone's naturally high,
Don't you know Mennonites never lie?
And I never did no silver needle,
(Repeat three times)
But I'm not gonna let "em catch me no
Not gonna let them catch the Mennonite Rider.
