Fats

Are you listening to me ... turn off that t.v. he looks like a monkey swinging in a tree, she would yell so mad and I'd be so sad to have to turn away when I was set to sway with the Fat Man. "I found my thrill on Blueberry Hill" and my heart lept when he smiled. My Mamma was a racist who hated Little Richard or Fats while she watched Elvis or Dean and squealed like a teen. I would hurry home from school just to catch my bandstand man as "the wind in the willow played love's sweet melody", and I prayed my Mamma would be late. But, here she'd come right on time yelling at the picture of a genius in his prime. ........ lyrics from "BlueBerry Hill" sung by Fats Domino ~~~~~~~~~~~ for Michele's Music To Your Pen contest ~~~~~~~~~~
