With frowns and worries in their faces they're lost and don't know where to go. He said I'll get the people straightened by putting on a puppet show. The young New Mexican puppeteer he saw the people all lived in fear. He thought that maybe they listen to a puppet telling them what to do. And now he got some string and he got some wood he did some carving and he was good and folks came running so they could hear the young New Mexican puppeteer. First he carved out young Abe Lincoln abe will teach 'em civil rights. Then a king named Martin Luther so they'd recall his peaceful fight. Old Mark Twain his wit and wisdom will surely show them life is fun. But he smiled with satisfaction when the Prince of Peace was done. The young New Mexican puppeteer... Now his puppet show were clever and he made the people laugh when he got across the message walk along love's open path. He lived in his own puppet theatre decked out with spotlights yellow and red.
