John Carter the Beet Farmer

John Carter was a gifted child
who came from a long line of red beet farmers
they were known for being the first to deliver beets 
by ships, trains, planes and by way of harbor
And every beet in the market has a stamp marked Carter,
he was also a charmer who honed his talents off the farm and in the parlor
a scholar and farmer who made a million dollars, 
got married, had a son and named him Jimmy Carter
who grew up to be a famous peanut farmer etc...
