West Sand Lake, NY Theme Song Part 1 From Rhymin' Richie-[AUDIO]

First and foremost, thanks to all who wrote in from West Sand Lake. As one Facebook friend mentioned, I think I had more contributors than there are citizens of the entire town!

West Sand Lake is a pretty little place. I recently DJ a private party there at the West Sand Lake Firehouse. Even that is a really nice, quaint, small-town atmosphere to it. In fact, another Facebook friend from my hometown on Eastern Long Island thought that it reminded her of where WE grew up. Ok, enough nostalgia. Let's get to the song, shall we?

West Sand Lake Part 1 Lyrics

©2013 Richie Phillips All Rights Reserved

Right now it don't bother me in the lease

to get on i90 and then head east

take the toyota mosey up the hill

to a place once known as Ulinesville

It's got a hometown Diner that beats all the rest

a place of picnics Porches and Progress

and I hear none in the town is wiser

than Flora Fasold -town supervisor

West Sand Lake

if you're smart

you can eat king crab at uncle marty

Hannaford's there but I am sure

that was once Miller's grocery store

When you drive near town

you're sure to travel

right past Troy sand and gravel

have you ever heard of the 43 mall

damn I blinked and I missed it all

I had to look hard to find a pub

but I did walk into Dobys subs

darn good school

for you sons and daughters

most famous spot in town

the 4 corners

who resides here Kenny Tremont

I thought he lived in Vermont

wait a minute is this true

Jerry Lewis worked here too

And Hemingway and Teddy Roosevelt,
Hung out at the crooked Lake Hotel

I'm running out of time to tell you all the rest

West sand lake

Here's the score

Don't have a police force anymore

Sounds like an upstate Mayberry

This was your song from Rhymin Richie

With enough info for parts two and three
