Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures to go with the song i love that old time rock and roll

Old Time Rock and Roll

Old Time Rock and Roll Just imagine this: Old time rock and roll This music makes me whole Like in the days of old Love that in my soul Tom Crew loves to rock, To old casetts he really bops He dances in his socks It's really not a shock Old time rock and roll This fills Alf's body and soul Like in the days of old He loves that rock and roll Bob Seger soothes my soul With his old-time rock and roll YouTube was his greatest gold He loves that old time rock and roll Alvin and The Chipmunks rock, they're dance is the tops, When it comes, to the gold. They love to, rock and roll Love that rock and roll Old time music fills my soul Like in the days of old Love that rock and roll
(This idea came to me after hearing Bob Seger(Hadn't hear in a long time) again. Went to YouTube and found some of his songs "Old Time Rock and Roll " being one of them. I wanted to put it in some kind of form so everyone could be reminded of him.)

Gershon, awesome that you enjoyed the Chipmunks. I mostly listened to the radio in the car, years ago that is. Now, I don't go very much but do listen to some oldies on TV when I am in the kitchen working, but now I have cellulitis in foot, ankle and lower leg and I am mostly sitting with my leg propped up.

I can't believe I didn't notice this title yesterday and open the poem. You put boogie woogie in me with this fun, auditory, feeling write. Love the lyrics and your taste in music. Had a good time. 'take those old records off the shelf....'

Yes, that is the way it is the way with most of us of my generation and maybe one generation down. Thanks for the nice, humorous comments, Victor. Your time spent here is appreciated. Sara K

My rock and roll was radiant. KISS, Kansas even Chuck Berry.
