God Rest You Poor Small Businessmen

To The Tune of God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen

Authorship Unknown

1. God Rest You poor small businessmen
Who've managed to survive;
Be glad in this e-con-o-my
That you are still alive;
Give shouts of praise at Christmas time
When folks who buy appear;

There's a chance...you'll break even for the year--
For the whole year--
There's a chance that you'll break even for the year

2. The chain stores and con-glom-er-ates
Have brought you to your knees;
High taxes, rent and labor costs
Have caught you in a squeeze;
The cost of goods keeps going up--
Inflation's running on--

So give thanks....you can buy cheap from Taiwan--
Good old Taiwan--
So give thanks that you can buy cheap from Taiwan
