John Sampson

 

[Verse 1]

We’re gathered here at Bingman's. It’s a Friday night affair,

Thirty years of studied help, John’s wisdom’s and his care.

A lawyer with a lion’s heart. We won from what he knew.

Now we’re raising up our glasses, John, this one’s for you.

 

[Chorus]

So here’s to John Sampson, the man we all admire,

Solving Bingman's legal trials which felt like muddy mire.

Now he’s headed for the lakeside. Maureen’s by his side,

With a pension, stocks, and freedom. Their lake is calm and wide.

 

[Verse 2]

Attorney Miller’s grinning now. He’s got a story or two to share,

About John’s leadership, the way he’d always care.

From board room down to break room, we all knew John’s name.

He’s leaving us a legacy, and some well-earned fame.

 

[Chorus]

So here’s to John Sampson, the man we all admire,

Guiding Bingham’s growth and wins, sometimes through fire.

Now he’s headed for the lakeside, Maureen’s by his side,

With a pension, stocks, and freedom. His rewards are wide.

 

[Bridge]

Germany and France are calling. Their histories are so fine,

But when the fish are biting, John’s gonna take his time.

He’ll trade the courthouse for a cabin by the shore,

And after years of service, more family time’s in store.

 

[Final Chorus]

So here’s to John Sampson, may his days be green and long,

Maureen brings her sunshine. They’ll learn a travel song.

John gave skills and friendship, but more love’s in store.

John Sampson, we all thank you. You’ll be missed for sure.
