The Legend of 'Silent Cal' Coolidge
Two men riding a train to Blue Ridge
seated opposite Calvin Coolidge
They bet the POTUS they could get on his nerves
that they could make him say more than two words
But try as they might, Calvin’s lips were sealed tight
all through the day and then through the night
The entire time Coolidge sat there quite amused
at his stop opened his mouth, said ~ “You lose!”
