    Seymore, Or Less

    by David Knape

    The little town of Seymore
    cain't be seen no more, it's true

    It got passed over by the railroad
    and they closed the local school

    They had a country store one time
    and a church that filled with Baptists

    But the pace got slow, as we all know
    slower than cane molasses

    Old Seymore cain't be seen no more
    but I guess it could be worse

    it's still here, but known Officially as
    "Rural Community, Dispersed".
