Crowson: The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

With all due respect to Andy Williams, there’s an even more wonderful time of year…

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
There’ll be tents and RVs
There’ll be buses and teepees – So be of good cheer!
It’s the Walnut Valley Festival time of year!

It’s the pick-pickingest season of all!
Guitars, mandolins, banjos
They even allow those
who play accordion
It’s the pick-pickingest season of all!

There’ll be stages for listening
To the great bands a visiting
And arts and crafts booths down the lane
There’ll be tons of musicians and no politicians
Of the type that can drive you insane

It’s the Winfieldiest time of the year!
There’ll be Monarchs zig-zagging
And sunflowers wagging
In the September air
It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
