Larry Bradfield Poet Quatrain

Ok, Just Drop One In

I see you've got a quarter, son,
OK, just drop one in.
This music's new to everyone
No matter where you've been,

They call it a Juke Box, my boy,
Brand new from the city.
That round thing there provides the joy -
Plays just any ditty.

This new Juke Box will change the world.
They'll invent Bobby Sox,
Young men will give their girls a whirl
In front of this Juke Box.

That's the future for a quarter -
OK, just drop one in.
You'll hear the sounds meant to court her-
Give that platter a spin.
