Variety-The Spice Of LifeWe know this well in Kansas. Though we make noise, there's little strife Out here in Sunny Kansas. Here some raise corn and others, wheat To feed the world; for all must eat And some folks raise the sugar beet, You can't beat these in Kansas! Variety---The Spice of Life Both hogs and sheep boost Kansas, And Texas cattle, they run rife On Bluestem grass in Kansas. But if too slow or hard the toil, There's wealth here down beneath the soil! Just take a chance and drill for oil! This often wins in Kansas! Variety, is good-we say, We have it here in Kansas. And even on Election Day, Count votes as cast, in Kansas! So, if industrious and fair Can give and takeare on the square You can't beat Kansas anywhere. The glad-hand's yours, in Kansas. __Ed Blair |
