Conway Twitty, Boyhood Memories

Some of those boyhood memories, only so often come around, so when they do, I set them free, on paper I write them down, When I was younger living at Blackiston Mill.. I had a rocking horse, and I remember the day I took a spill, as I hit the floor head first, And I remember my pet squirrel, and me learning how to roller skate, the very first time I kissed a girl.... before I was old enough to date, And I remember when mom and dad, moved us to the city.... when I was just a lad.... listening to the songs of Conway Twitty, Yes, he'll forever be missed by me, and his songs still come to mind... a great writer and singer of musical history, One Great Legend of all times!

My favorite of his was Lonely Blue Boy. I believe it was the flip side of It's Only Make Believe, another classic. Man, you are jarring this old brain lose with those memory writes. Vince
