THE JOHN VIEN TOOTHPICK LEGEND

Old John Vien cut the timber down,
On his eighty acres,
He floated the logs down the stream,
To find some timber takers,

John Vien hopped among the logs,
With a stick to clear logs that cram,
All went well until the water stopped,
At a beaver's big log jam,

Now, John Vien's timber float,
Was ending as the logs crammed tight,
But, John Vien had on his river boat,
A load of dynamite,

The dynamite blew up the dam real good,
But, the logs were now splinters in the air,
That's how John Vien started his toothpick business,
And became a millionaire.
