Father Hennepin went down to Bennigan’s | |
To discuss the construction of the Hennepin Bridge | |
He had time to kill down by the flour mill | |
So he planned a picnic lunch on St Anthony Main | |
Now Father Hennepin he was notorious | |
And he liked a little drunk down at Nye’s Polanaise | |
His explorations were more than glorious | |
So they planned to build a bridge that would feature his name | |
Well, first Niagara and then St Anthony’s | |
Were discovered by the fella with the Hennepin name | |
But when the lock was filled on the lower falls | |
Eveyone was shoppin’ on the Nicollet Mall | |
And when the rope was cut on the Hennepin | |
Father Louis had a most unusual plan | |
He would take a dip in the Mississippi | |
He would dive from the centre and swim to the dam | |
When the time had come and he took the plunge | |
Everyone screamed: “My God, what has he done” | |
And though he tried to swim, the current carried him | |
Closer and closer to the brink of the falls | |
The people lined the banks of the Mississippi | |
To watch Father Hennepin go over the edge | |
The people there that day, they all swear they say | |
Father Hennepin was laughin’ as he fell to his death |
