Spoken: Good morning, friends, this is the Hour of Reckoning.
Sung: Hello, friends and neighbors,
How do you do?
We’re here to pick and sing
And we hope we bring

Spoken: Hallelleujah, friends and neighbors, here we are from Del Rio,
Texas every morning at five-thirty AM, brought to you by…
by… the Pink and Pleasant Plastic Icon Company of Del Rio,

Friends and neighbors (hallelleujah), what better place for a
family altar than the top of your television set?
Sung: You can buy a Sweet Madonna
Dressed in rhinestones sitting on a
Pedestal of abalone shell,
Goin’ ninety, I’m not wary
