He said my water's good n' my water's free

So Pond-erosa, you gonna thank me!

Then he bottled it up and he labeled it "Mine"

They opened n' poured, but they ran outta time!

So Puff made a brand and he tanned his hide

Said. "this is the mark of too much pride"

Tied him to a horse, set the tail on fire

 Slapped er on the ass and the water went higher!

Chorus

 Pond-erosa Puff

 wouldn't take no guff

 Water oughta be clean and free

 So he fought the fight

 and he set things right

 With his OpenBSD

Well things were good fer a spell in town

But then one day, dang water turned brown

Comin' to the rescue, Mayor Reed

He said, "This here filter's all ya'll need"

But it didn't take long 'fore the filter plugged

Full of mud, n' crud, n' bugs

Folks said "gotta be a gooder way"

 Mayor said "Hell No! She's O.K."

"The water's fine on the Open range"

And he passed a law that it couldn't change.

"No freeze, no boil, no frolicking young"

 Puff took him aside, said "this is wrong"

Then he found the Mayor was addin' the crud!

So he took him down in a cloud of blood

Said "The Mayor's learnd, he's done been mean"

 So they did it right and the water went clean!

So once agin' it was right, but then

The lake went dry, she was gone again!

Fish started flippin' and floppin' about

Yellin' "Mercy Puff! It's a doggone drought!"

So he rolled up-gulch till he hit the lake

Of Apache fish, they was on the take

They'd built a dam that was made of rules

 Now Puff was pissed and he lost his cool!

I'm sick and tired of these goldarn words!

n' laws n' bureaucratic nerds!

You're full o' beans n' killin' my town

and if you's all don't shut er down

I'll hang a lickin' on every one

of you sons o' bitchin' greedy scum!

So he blew the dam, an' he let 'er haul

Cause water oughta be free for all!

That's right! I'll hang a lickin' on ya! Never piss on another man's boot!
