Getting More From Les
Do Not Roam, Senate Joe
To the tune of “Take Me Home, Country Roads”
With apologies to John Denver.
He’s the man from West Virginia,
He’s Joe Manchin, his name makes me shiver
On the Blue Team, that’s the way he sees
But today I’m feeling, with Dems he disagrees
Senate Joe, do not roam
Don’t misplace, or go wrong
Stick with Biden, and with Shumer
Do not roam, Senate Joe.
In the Senate, a three-termer
Moderation, never been a Berner
Filibuster, the apple of his eye
He don’t want to change it, don’t want to be that guy.
Senate Joe, do not roam
Don’t misplace, or go wrong
Stick with Biden, and with Shumer
Do not roam, Senate Joe.
Now with Krysten, causing trouble
Own the libs, well, that could be your motto.
Fighting clean air, and the taxes too.
But without your votes, the Dems will have two few.
Senate Joe, do not roam
Don’t misplace, or go wrong
Stick with Biden, and with Shumer
Do not roam, Senate Joe.
You hear the news from the lobbyists, they call you
Remind you of the coal that lies ‘neath West Virginia clay
Deciding how to vote, you gotta know that
Fossil fuels, should go away, just go away.
Senate Joe, do not roam
Don’t misplace, or go wrong
Stick with Biden, and with Shumer
Do not roam, Senate Joe.
Do not roam, Senate Joe.
Do not roam, Senate Joe.

Hi! I am Les, a practicing pathologist living in the North Suburbs and commuting every day to the Western ones. I have lived my entire life in the Chicago area, and have a pretty good feel for the place, its attractions, culture, restaurants and teams. My wife and I are empty-nesters with two adult children and a grandchild. We recently decided to downsize, but just a bit! I will be telling the story of the construction of our new home, but also writing about whatever gets me going on a particular day. Be sure to check out the “About” page to learn more about where we plan to go with this blog!
