ACKY PARK

This old place been good to me,
Seen me through some misery 
Helped me find my blind way through the dark 
Up or down I come along 
Get up here and sing my song 
I feel I belong at Acky Park. 

Kindnesses I've been shown 
By people I have barely known 
That's the kind of conduct hits the mark 
Up or down I come along 
Get up here and sing my song 
I feel I belong at Acky Park. 

  Watch the other singers take the stage 
  Listen to them sing their songs of longing, love and rage 
  Every type of music gets played here 
  Country, soul and rock and roll all music to my ears  

Photos, mikes, youtube too
Everything's done here for you 
By special folk we all appreciate 
All you gotta do is show 
Book your turn and off you go 
Just make sure you don't turn up too late  

  Here's your chance tonight to get it right
  Noone cares if you are none too good or way outta sight 
  Don't compare yourself to all the rest  
  Just get up there, share your soul and brother do your best. 

This old place been good to me 
Seen me through some misery 
Helped me find my blind way through the dark 
Up or down I come along 
Get up here and sing my song 
I feel I belong at Acky Park 
I feel I belong at Acky Park. 

WATCH ME SING THIS ON YOUTUBE. LOUIS SPENCE: ACKY PARK.   THANK YOU.
