Oh Vermont:
How far you have dropped.

From Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys to
a latter-day Benedict Arnold.

Keep your maple-syrup candy and sheep.
Americans will ski the other states.

From http://www.brightlightsfilm.com/30/irvingberlin3.html:

White Christmas (1954)
White Christmas
Danny Kaye and Bing Crosby in White Christmas

(Crosby and Kaye play two ex-GIs who put on a show to save a ski resort opened by their beloved general.)

"We'll follow the old man,
wherever he wants to go...
...except VERMONT!!!"

When someone buys maple syrup somewhere else, they should send the Vermont syrup sellers the label with its state of origin highlighted.

Skiers should send their non-Vermont ski lift tickets to the VT resorts.
