A Redneck Visits the Eiffel Tower

A Redneck Visits the Eiffel Tower By Elton Camp I hadn’t never been over to that Paris before And I shore don’t care to go there no more Most of those folks look like some sorta kook And they all talk in this strange gobbley-gook Them Frenchies, they call it the City of Light And I have to admit they’s got that part right But that tall tower that they like to brag about If they’ll ever get it finished, I have my doubt They started building it over a hundred years ago But only got as far as the iron framework though They better get some walls added to that thing If they expect that any rent it’s going to bring It’s tall enough that it could have a lot of floors It would hold a bunch of apartments and stores Unless they close it in, that iron’s gonna rust Then whoever’s stalling around will get cussed If in building it, they are never gonna get through Then it seems to me there’s only one thing to do I can’t see how there can be any really good excuse Not to tear it down and give that iron a good use
