Van Buren Maine
And Larry Cote Van Buren Main's Economy is SO BAD there is now a song about it! Van Buren

Here is the Van Buren Maine song. A friend of mine sent it to me in Frenchville after several people in Van Buren had passed it around as an e-mail. I think the song about Van Buren Maine was written after the US Census report came out ranking Van Buren Maine as the poorest city in Maine and Maine one of the poorest states in the USA.

I've also heard rumors that some people may be do under the table things to take the welfare cases out of Portland and then export them to a place like Van Buren Maine.

If you think that Van Buren is going to improve anythime soon, forget it. I've heard that the police spend all of their time in the sandwich shops on Main Street - they never pulling anyone over for speeding, loud music, etc. Van Buren Maine has become a city that is afrade to crack down on the low lifes that live there since the city thinks that if they don't have food stamp and welfare people they won't have anybody at all. Van Buren is likely correct about that. It is really a poor trashy place.

Van Buren Maine Song

Van Buren Man
In the Van Buren Land
Arf-Arf Honk-Honk Boom-Boom Land

Hey Larry Cote - "Cotex" Man
You've turned Van Buren To a Welfare Land
You and the Boom-Box Food Stamp Man!

Welfare!
We're talking about Food Stamps
We're talking about low-class

Van Buren Man
In the Van Buren Land
Arf-Arf Honk-Honk Boom-Boom Land

Hey Larry Cote - "Cotex" Man
Van Buren's now powered by the Welfare Man
Boom-Box cars past low-class bars

Van Buren Man
In the Van Buren Land
Arf-Arf Honk-Honk Boom-Boom Land

Hey Larry Cote - "Cotex" man
Do the police in your town -
Earn a living sittin at the snack bar man?

Van Buren Man
In the Van Buren Land
Arf-Arf Honk-Honk Boom-Boom Land

Hey Larry Cote - "Cotex" man
We used to have a nice town
Before the Food Stamps
Before the welfare
Before the chicks on WIC
Before the Boom-Box cars
Before the white trash
Ya, ya, ya
