GRUMBLE TOWN.
Folks who live in grumble town Show n scowl and wear a frown, Nevor deign to give a smile, Mumble, grumble all the while.
Winds are always hot or cold, Making grumble people scold; Fretting, fuming, they complain, If it shino or if it rain.
All their tempers are awry, Cannot pleaso 'em if you try; Nothing right, and all things wrong, That's the burden of their song.
If you live there don't you stay! Pack your goods and move away; Look around, on every hand Shines the happy laughter land!
