Mister Brown Of ShoplessTown • f II 'i^UA m f Behold a man of Shopless Town; His name is Obadiah Brown. He says the town does not improve, But rims along its ancient groove. He’d like tfflfee it spread and grow, And yet he does not help, you know. Instead of buying things for sale Right here in town, he’s sent by mail For many years and bought his things From those faroff Mail Order kings. No wonder, Obadiah Brown, This home of yours is Shopless Town!
