A Trip Down Memory Lane

A Trip Down Memory Lane Let’s take a walk down memory lane, Let’s go to the fifties to share those days once again. Go to the Triangle Restaurant with your steady date, To see all your friends cruising and staying out late. Ride very slowly through our small town, The twenty-five cent gas never let you down. A cherry coke we drank with two straws, We cruised, played our music, never worried about the laws. Let’s go back to those good old days, There were ball games, parties, and class plays. The music we played never got old, The juke box blared out those songs of gold. We went to the drive in movie on Saturday night, As teens our money was always very tight. Our friends would hide in the trunk of the cars, Then emerge and sit with us under the stars. I want to go back to those days of yesteryear, Where we lived among friends without fear. To stop and have a soda at the local drug store, Yes, it is possible for us to dream once more. © Lynn B. Glover 2011
