Jory

Jory was an outlaw, don’t know exactly why
He’d turn his TV up when the Witnesses came by
And there never was a gentleman like Jory, Jory
And there never was a gentleman like Jory,
Who never did tell a lie

Jory he went walking on a Sunday afternoon
A spaceship picked him up and he landed on the moon
And there never was an astronaut like Jory, Jory
And there never was an astronaut like Jory,
We hope he’ll be back soon

Jory he walked in to the stock market one day
Bought seven shares of Exxon and gave the company away
And there never was a big tycoon like Jory, Jory
And there never was a big tycoon like Jory,
To make the markets pay
