There once was a man from Duluth
who grew very long in the tooth
he lost all his hair
but he still had a pair
that randy old man from Duluth
A rakish young fellow from Duluth
Completely hooked on gin and vermouth
Drank like a fish
Out of a dish
Somewhere along the way lost his couth.

There once was a dude from Duluth
This dude only sported one tooth
Wore tattered old jeans
Quite airy they seemed
The truth, the “hole” truth, and nuttin' but the truth
There are a couple who live in Fort Meyers
who are firm World War two deniers
They shout out the truth
It was filmed in Duluth!
Are they just dumb or a couple of liars

There once was this dude from Duluth
Who sported just one single tooth
Got into a fight
Knocked out his lights
Relating the tale, sure some of it's untruth

Giant’s wife was angry Ruth
Thinks she is a super sleuth
Manners are usually uncouth
Some say she comes from Duluth
Ruth has a magic wisdom tooth
And the gift of a saysooth
When she speaks, it is the truth
Uh-oh, she’s sitting in the adjoining booth
May we learn from the peace bell that sits high atop a hill in Duluth,
which holds inside it’s chimes and everlasting truth….
That people who, at first, do no get along
can also make amends
that individual friendships can promote understanding
and that enemies can become friends.
She's just like you,
She dances a jig on youtube.
She's just like you,
Servants in every room.
She's just like you.
She gets constipated too.
She's just like you,
Corporate mama in
Red heeled shoes.
She's just like you,
In a private jet over
Over duluth.
She's just like you,
A princess with a tower,
Like you.
And then she had only one tooth
The rest had decayed, that’s the truth
Too much Christmas candy
No dentist was handy
She lived all alone in Duluth
Of dentists, she was not a fan
Guess that’s why she can’t find a man
One tooth has its perks
Just watch how it works
When she needs to open a can!
A foolish, young man from Duluth
Spent all of his money on Ruth.
She's grateful of course.
He's filled with remorse,
And now must face up to the truth.
January bills are now due.
Year's taxes are coming up too,
Taxes and charged bills,
Most he head for hills?
Bills don't pay themselves it is true.

Duluth Warmbilt factory blanket
placed over his shoulders
after dinner cookie in lap
untasted
facing out the long
double-paned window
grinning hard
scaring the new hire
A skull she thinks
waiting for it to melt
just enough
so the two-ton truck
The crazy kids drove out
onto the frozen lake
stuck out there
all winter now
gets swallowed up.
the desserts were bragging they had stolen my tooth
It was cake and ice cream, both hailed from Duluth
They were obscene, bragging with outrageous smiles
I wanted them to go away, at least a hundred miles
I knew they had taken other teeth from me too
I had lost several to cavities, and it made me blue
The desserts were boasting they had stolen from me
I wanted them to fall off the edge and end up in the sea
A legendary entertainer known for his folk singin'
Wrote the protest song, "The Times They Are A Changin'
He was born in Duluth, Minnesota as Robert Zimmerman
Singer, songwriter, author, artist, what else? A renaissance man!

'Twas the night before Christmas
On the village square.
Carolers were singing.
Everyone was there.
My daddy was a baritone
But his falsetto filled the air.
Mama shrunk his boxers;
They're not ready-to-wear.
He asked Santa for some new ones;
He didn't dare go bare.
So, on Christmas morning,
Santa left a spare.
Now daddy has a pair
That couldn't give a care.
He's back to singing bass
Thanks to his Duluth underwear.
