Not a Care
Not A Care
by Rick Rucker
I remember I had not a care,
With tie-dyed shirts, and long, long hair.
I didn't really well fit in,
I was so dorky, it was a sin!
I am not a handsome guy,
But I hardly had to try.
Women knew that Love was free,
They even gave it up to me!
Oh, and she better have a car,
In the rain, my Harley wouldn't get us far.
I wasn't a biker either,
Just took, from a job, a breather!
Even I could afford gas,
For my iron horse that would transport my ass.
The situation got very grim,
When I felt my wallet, by then quite slim.
I had to leave that world behind,
Re-entering the Daily Grind.
This time around, it really worked,
Where, before it had irked
Me, not this time, it was great!
I even started to date!
I share with you my history,
To help clear up a mystery,
It may never be too late,
Have a little Faith in Fate!
If your child wants a Sabbatical,
Try not to get too fanatical!
These things seem to work out,
Just relax, put on your tie-dye, and chill out!
