THE SABBATH STORY

With all creation manifested
On the seventh day God rested
At least that’s what we’re taught the Good Book sayeth.
So we observe the Sabbath Day
Watching Donovan McNabbath play
God found another job, per se, on day the e-ighth.

Jews and Seventh Day Adventists
Except the bankers and the dentists
Were so zealous they began their work on Sunday.
They tried to start their work week over
But couldn’t sell it to Jehovah
So, they’re saddled with a Sabbath off by one day.

They do all their chores on Sunday
Sabbath Saturday is fun day
In the Fall they watch a lot of college ball.
If they could have they’re druthers, though
They’d watch Peyton or his brother throw
But these pro games they don’t get to see at all.

But Lo! A would-be savior came
Howard Cosell of boxing fame
Before he died, he saved them, somewhat, from their plight.
If you believe this Sabbath story
Give Howard thanks and praise and glory
For his gift of one more game, on Monday night.
