East Greenbush gets a song from WGNA's Rhymin Richie

Well, you win some, you lose some. I had a rough morning, but at least I gave the East Greenbush song the old college try.

I have to thank everyone who shared information with me about their beloved town. Actually, they gave a lot of facts about all of the businesses who moved out! I don't think the Chamber of Commerce would appreciate that, so I didnt harp on it too much.

Be that as it may, it's still a great place. Happy to sing about it, even though it was a little tough to sing live. I stumbled and fell a few times. I guess I was tired from all of the excitement yesterday when Newschannel 13 covered my 5 County Anti Bullying Project Here is the song, East Greenbush- with lyrics to follow

There is a place

With a real classy name

But it's more than the name that

Attracts us

The townfolk scream

For the Blue Devil team

When there not screaming bout the high taxes

(Each) day we drive by Columbia High

It has quite the respectable rating

(And) beneath a bridge

I am not quite sure which

Each year the kids draw some cool paintings

(East) Greenbush where the traffic is yeechh

Every morning I say holy moly

(I )dream you see of our nice bakeries

Like Zachary's and Crisp Cannoli

I wanna go where Grennbushians go

3 fire departments as you know

(and a) dealership owned by Fucillo that's HUUUUGE

After dinner take a little trip

Grab some dessert at the Lickety Split

Though the Taco Bell and the KFC are closed

That's no longer where Grennbushians go

Mcdonalds left too what a shame

But you can still go bowling at the spare time lanes

the sewage treatment plant stinks as you know

And so does this song on the Sean and Richie Show

I wanna go where Grennbushians go.....
