End Of An Era
OUR bookie's hanging up his boots
A sad day for us all
Which ever road he chooses
I'm sure he'll have a "Ball!"
Probably a "White One", in the
fresh air on the hill
Golf, the final frontier
Drive carefully if you will!
Remember all us punters
Who supplied you throughout
Each day a little banter
"You're banned", I hear you shout!
It won't be quite the same of course
to greet us, faces new
Without this fine establishment
whatever would we do!
I speak for all the regulars
who tried to beat the bank
"Fun well it lasted", Maurice
to you and your staff we thank!
Out with the old, in with the new
How will it affect morale?
Sounds like another Western
Bet with the OK-Coral!
