Blue Jeans Everywhere

   Blue jeans surround me
     blue jeans all around me
   Blue jeans everywhere I look
     blue jeans in every store and shuk *           *open-air marketplace, bazaar

   Chicago, Houston, Detroit, L.A.
     China, Russia, Canada and Paraguay
   Barbeques, even fine dining
     Blue jeans, all occasions defining

   Creased, faded, ripped or lean
     on the farm or in Times Square
   Blue jeans always make the scene
  
   No matter the decade or the year
     ~ blue jeans are what the people wear

I enjoyed your fun/true "Blue jeans everywhere" write. I remember when one got dressed for a wedding or funeral. Today, blue jeans is what they wear. So Sad... Have a blessed day.......................

Back in the seventies we used to sew patches on bell bottom blue jeans to make them look worn.
