Ambition 2

Ambition 2

Jimmy, oh Jimmy, where have you been?
I told you, mom, I’d not be seen
for a while as I’m digging a hole
to China - it’s always my goal.

The back yard weren’t big enough
and the ground really tough,
so I dug in the golf course way over there;
now I hear Chinese voices - I’m nearly there!
