Betty Beavers Truck Stop & Diner

A place that welcomes all but the whiner

Who knew it was he that she blew by, the Dork

In the town of Fultonville, New York

They serve the best in the state

Who knew he would be there and late

Their specials are especially great

Leaving the appetite sate

It would be okay to eliminate him

The desserts are wonderful, a real treat

A great place to get gas and to eat

Tell him where to go, and where does he get off

If you are ever in NY, stop by and fill yourself at the trough

A lovely place to eat and fill your tank, then runoff
