 I was wondering what to do so
 Decided to go look for Little Abner
 Thought we could write a song
 Or study the gestures of Groucho Marx
 I was looking for log cabins
 And laundry drying on a line
 Traveled Kentucky and Tennessee
 This was being an adventurous feat
 Abner and I are alike
 We both feel strong about truth
 There is nothing we would do
 That could be considered uncouth
 We both love our country
 Have affection for the land
 We stand and salute the flag
 And think that the eagle is grand
 In fact we could have been brothers
 Harbor love, honor and respect in our hearts
 The fact that I probably won’t find him
 Was with me from the start
 Dasie May was a loving bride
 In the fields they would walk, not ride
 They loved their home and family
 Lived their lives with humility
 Abner was a loving neighbor
 Would help when needed with labor
 I’ve done my best to track him down
 Have scoured every village and town
 So my adventure had to end
 I think of him as a dear friend
 He stood for righteousness without a doubt
 His determination for goodness would never end
