It Takes a Real Man To Wear Pink

IT TAKES A REAL MAN TO WEAR PINK I went to Belk -- they had a sale It seems they always do They had men's shirts -- buy one Then for half price, another two I bought a button-down oxford A pretty solid blue Then I had to make a decision On the color for the other two Should I get a plaid And perhaps a stripe Maybe choose another solid Or perhaps get one of white So I began to stop and think Back to my teenage days Of the combination of grey and pink That really was the craze But now that I am seventy What will people say When I show up in a shirt of pink And a tie of pink and grey Then the thought occurred to me Why worry what others think Be bold, stand tall, smile and say It takes a real man to wear pink
