Out of Style

Forgive me my dear, it's been awhile, I've fallen out of style. I still think husbands and wives should be true it seems to me it’s the proper thing to do. It’s been awhile, I’ve fallen out of style. I still think there is nobility in earning one’s way and living off others is less than OK. It’s been awhile, I’ve fallen out of style. I still think some things are radically wrong, and I still get chills singing our nation’s song. It’s been awhile, I’ve fallen out of style. I still think no one but us makes our success and it isn’t the result of inheritance or address. It’s been awhile, I’ve fallen out of style. I still think our Constitution was divinely inspired and He prepared the framers who were required. It’s been awhile, I’ve fallen out of style. Yes, dear, I think some things in mortality matter and claims to the contrary are empty chatter. It’s been awhile, I’ve fallen out of style.
