With 'Whip' Cracker at the reins
The Rickety Stage rolled into town
Since Dunn and Dusted bought the farm
The driver lost his frown
It felt good to hear the cheers
he waves and friendly smiles
After all the years and so many miles

Giving Chris a happy hug
Harriet was first to meet the stage
As he carried in the books she'd ordered
Carefully handling every page
From when she first arrived in town
The benefit to all was shown and
Her stock of library books had grown

Manny Ger signed for new boxes of merchandise
Whatshisface helped carry them in
Chief ThingAmajig sat drinking his coffee
For his half of the store, it was win-win
For Unger, new shovels,
doc a pack of depressors
And Bishop DoRito,
a new bench for confessors

All deliveries made,
a drink at the bar
A nod to the sheriff's chair
The news about CG kidnapping
Told why he wasn't there

Made a quick run to folks he knew just to say hello
Then back to the library and the stage - it was time to go
Sister Mary and the children waved
From the classroom above the library
The older ones knew 'Whip' Cracker's role
When he came dressed up as Santa
On his stage from the cold North Pole

With a wink of his eye and a twist of his head
He climbed back on his stage and to Rickety head
Next trip to BG he'll be all dressed in red
Bells on the harness,
Santa's hat on his head
The coach would be filled with gifts and toys
For all the town's little girls and boys
There'd be stuff for the adults, what, who knew
But whatever it was it would always do
