Beaver Nelson — Government-Sanctioned Hayride lyrics

Lyrics

Running a government-sanctioned hayride
I check IDs at admission
Don’t want to be on the wrong side
Thank you sirs for your permission
Running a government-sanctioned hayride
Twenty years until my pension
You cannot imagine my pride
Thank you sirs for your permission
Running a government-sanctioned hayride
Safety regulations tended
All the kiddies seated inside
Thank you sirs for your permission
Running a government-sanctioned hayride
Easier these days than fishin'
All the charm is gone but know my
Thank you sirs for your permission
Running a government-sanctioned hayride
Thanks for reading my petition
My three boys right there at my side
Thank you sirs for your permission
Running a government-sanctioned hayride
Long has been a dream of mine
Laid awake as a boy at night
Thinking of that taxman line
Got my license for my hay bales
Got my sticker for emissions
Police escort right alongside
Thank you sirs for your permission
Running a government-sanctioned hayride
Twenty years until my pension
You cannot imagine my pride
Thank you sirs for your permission
