Lyrics

Well, I read all about it in the Courier
It was front-page item stuff
How the little town had lost a friend, 
About all the good he’d done
Though he was ninety-three, 
And he’d been living
With sickness for a while
That still did not diminish
How they missed Bud Hamilton

Bud came here back in ’46
After serving in the war
It was the beauty of the mountains
It was his love of the outdoors
So, he and his wife Nancy
Left their home up in St. Paul
And drove for eighteen hours
To this town that they’d call home

Well it seems to me 
That what this world needs 
Is a whole lot more people
Just like him
And although he had no money
He was a wealthy man
And we could all learn something 
From Bud Hamilton

You may be born to luxury 
And never know despair 
You may work and sweat to reach a goal 
And never quite get there 
The prophets say the man of wealth 
Whose gifts are scarce and small 
Is judged far less righteous 
Than the poor man giving all
