Houlton....


...Maine Aroostook County Capitol, it wears the crown,
and for most of Maine, it's the most beautiful downtown;
those old brick buildings, put together just right,
surround the square, it looks good in any light.

Interstate 95 comes to an end right here,
leaving those in the north with nothing to cheer;
it ends at the border and the Houlton Airport,
which once housed POW's, but showed them good sport.
