With apologies to Helen Reddy and the composers of Delta Dawn….,
Delta boys what’s that picture you have on ….
Could it be a faded road from days gone by ?….
But did I hear you say, there’s a meeting in here today,
To take your debt to that mansion in the sky….
It’s 41 (months) and Grady still says it’s Ok, gents and ladies….
All the folks in Dunedin say he’s crazy….,
Cause he walks to Harcourts, with a suitcase in his hand,
Looking for a mysterious dark haired man….
In younger days they called it Citiworks, son….
Most profitable contractor you ever laid eyes on….
But a man of Noble degree came to their side,
Broke all promises and took them for a ride….
