An Old Crow

Sinatra, Crosby, Bennett and Como
Crooners from the past a long time ago
Today's hullabaloo
Don't know who's who
Guess I'm just an old over-the-hill crow

Names are easily forgotten by today's standards.

I'm not one to dwell on the past BUT today's "music" is not "music"... it is atrocious!!! Jack

Join the club, Jack. The days of lyrics I could understand appear to be long gone!

Let me know if I've left any of those old guys out!! Perhaps Johnny Cash but maybe he's a later genre! Have a good day my friend!
