My Song Written By Mrs Yolanda Joy Nicholsen

My song goes like this
time after time I read bedtime stories
back then there were no worries 
simple kids go to the store
big momma did her floors
pops cut all the boys hair
at the barbershop 
snowballs in the summer time 
wind mills in the wind
Italian ices on 18th street
Chicago style hotdogs 
jew town polishes
Greek town old town 
new town uptown 
oh Lincoln park zoo
dreams of being the first black
Supreme Court Justice 
I sing my song only after
the blues stopped playing 
on Maxwell street 
 Written by Mrs Yolanda Joy Nicholsen 

Written by Yolanda Joy Nicholsen 
May 14th 2004 right before my 
sons graduation Fort Myers Florida

FOND MEMORIES GROWING UP 
HEARING THE BLUES 
ON MAXWELL STREET 
CHICAGO
