The Gingerbread Man

Who is this, is he made of sugar and spice
He walks in every event casting good cheer
Always always friendly and nice
As he is Market Drayton


He is timeless, he never ages
He is yesterday, today and tomorrow
And he never asks for wages
As he is Market Drayton


In the busy town square
He is there in rain and sun
And when he appears cheers fill the air
As he is Market Drayton


For years the town has known
He links us to the past
Reminding us we are gingerbread’s home
As he is Market Drayton


So, raise a glass, raise a cheer
To our lovely gingerbread man
As he wanders without fear
As he is Market Drayton.
