Greedy Ol' Da

What do you want for your birthday dad? How about a table at Queen’s Surf Waikiki Sipping a mixed drink Listening to the Chief of Police Singing a song As a sliver moon Crests Diamond Head Red Gold Or a day on Mac’s lobster boat Following Novi dog To keep from underfoot Enjoying the company Of fellow travelers Both joyfully aware Greedy Old Dad Settling for Now And Quiet Joy
