My Very First Movie
Remember your very first movie?
I surely remember mine
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
It was nineteen thirty-nine!
Went to a matinee with my parents
“Sit still!” my mother said
Saw two movies and a funny cartoon
Still dancing round in my head!
I remember being really frightened
By the sight of the wicked old Queen
Soon as Dopey came bouncing along
Happy times returned to the screen!
The music's been around for a lifetime
Remember “Whistle While You Work”
And “Someday My Prince Will Come”
That's when my ears started to perk
Sure don't make 'em like that anymore
Now they're 3-D animated gems
Amazing but I long for the simpler times
Sure wish I could live 'em again!
