A Song For Feura Bush – Your Town Thursday [AUDIO]

Feura Bush is an interesting little hamlet in the Town of New Scotland (see what you learn when you ask for information from our listeners?) . That's not all I learned, and you're about to learn yourself as you listen to this little takeoff on a classic Rascal Flatts song.

Lord knows WHY I went with Rascal Flatts for this song parody . It's almost an impossibility to sing like them, so don't expect me to sound even REMOTELY like Gary Levox, 'cuz it ain't happening. With that disclaimer in mind, here is your song, Feura Bush., with lyrics to follow. Please feel free to "like" it and/or comment (gulp)

Feura Bush

lyrics ©2013 Richie Phillips All Rights Reserved (but if you live in Feura Bush, you can have them)

It's got a long history and it always will

it was once called Jerusalem and also Moaksville

in fact way back in the 18th century

almost all the land was owned by Harmon Van Der Zee

and there's something else you have to understand

it's now hamlet part of New Scotland

now if you want some grub

there's Perscios and the Pixi Pub's

I'm gona hurt my jaw

when I try to say Onesquethaw

Feura Bush it's neat

Stanton farm stand where you can pick your strawberries

new firehouse and from what I hear

their in a desperate need of volunteers

stick your ear out your door long after dark

and you can hear a bunch of beagle club doggies bark

yea if I were you I would rush

to Feura Bush

it's fantastic

that's where GE makes some of it's plastic

The old schoolhouse is a memory

They turned that into a library

Lots of things we'll miss for sure

Feura bush tavern and Vadney's feed store
