WellI had two weeks of vacation time coming.After workin all year down at Big Roy s Heating and Plumbing.So one nightwhen my family and I were gathered round the dinner tableI saidKids... If you could go anywhere in this great big world, now Where d you like to go to?They saidDad... We wanna see the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.They picked the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.So the very next day we loaded up the carWith potato skins and pickled weinersCrossword puzzlesSpiderman comics and mama s homemade rhubarb piePulled out of the drivewayand the neighborsthey all waved goodbye.And so began our three-day journey.We picked up a guy holdin a sign that said "Twine Ball or Bust."He smelled real badand he said his name was Bernie.I put in a Slim Whitman tapemy wife put on a brand new hair net.Kids were in the back seat jumpin up and downyellin "Are we there yet?"And all of us were joined together in one common thoughtAs we rolled down the long and winding Interstate in our 53 DeSoto.We re gonna see the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.We re headin for the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.Ohwe couldn t wait to get thereso we drove straight through forthree whole days and nights.Of coursewe stopped for more pickled weiners now and then.The scenery was just so prettyBoyI wish the kids could ve seen it.But you can t see out of the side of the car because the windows arecompletely covered with the decals from all the places where we vealready been.Like Elvis-a-Ramathe Tupperware MuseumThe Boll Weevil Monumentand Cranberry WorldThe Shuffleboard Hall of FamePoodle Dog RockAnd the Mecca of Albino Squirrels.We ve been to ghost townstheme parkswax museumsAnd a place where you can drive through the middle of a tree.Seen alligator farms and tarantula ranchesBut there s still one thing we ve gotta see.Wellwe crossed the state line about 6:39And we saw the sign that saidTwine Ball Exit - fifty miles.Ohthe kids were so happythey started singing "99 Bottles of Beeron the Wall" for the twenty-seventh time that day.So we pulled off the road at the last chance gas stationGot a few more pickled weiners and a diet chocolate sodaOn our way to see the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.We re gonna see the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.Finally at 7:37 early Wednesday eveningas the sun was settingin the Minnesota skyOut in the distanceon the horizon it appeared to me like a visionbefore my unbelieving eyes.We parked the car and walked with awe-filled reverence toward thatglorioushugemajestic sphere.I was just so overwhelmed by its sheer immensityI had to pop myself a beer.Yeson these hallowed groundsopen 10 to 8 on weekdaysin a little shrine under a makeshift pagodaThere sits the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.I tell youit s the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.Ohhhwhat on Earth would make a man decide to do that kind of thing.Ohhhwindin up 21140 pounds of string.What was he tryin to prove?Who was he tryin to impress?Why did he build it? How did he do it?It s anybody s guess.Where did he get the twine?What was goin through his mind?Did it just seem like a good idea at the time?Wellwe walked up beside itand I warned the kids"Now you better not touch itthose ropes are there for a reason."I saidMaybe if you re good, I ll tie it to the back of our car, and we can take it home.But I was only teasin .Then we went to the gift shop and stood in line.Bought a souvenir miniature ball of twineSome window decalsand anything else they d sell us.And I bought a couple postcards: "Greetings from the Twine Ballwish you were here." Won t the folks back home be jealous.I gave our camera to Bernieand we stood by the ballAnd we all gathered around and saidCheese.Then Bernie ran away with my brand new InstamaticBut at least we ve got our memories.So we all just stared at the ball for awhileAnd my eyes got moistbut I said with a smile"Kidsthis here s what America s all about."Then I started feelin kinda gooey insideAnd I fell on my knees and I cried and cried.And that s when those security guards threw us out.You knowI bet if we unraveled that suckerit d roll all the way down to FargoNorth Dakota Cause it s the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.I m talkin bout the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.Wellwe stayed that night at the Twine Ball Inn.In the morning we were on our way home again.But we really didn t wanna leavethat was perfectly clear.I saidFolks, I can tell you re all sad to go.Then I winked my eye and I saidYou know, I got a funny kinda feeling we ll be coming back again next year. Cause I ve been all around this great big worldand I can t think of anywhere else I d rather go toThan the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.I said the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.Minnesota.Minnesota.Minnesota.
