The Soundtrack To My Youth
I remember the old songs
Always to play and sing along
The Beatles play a Hard Day’s Night in Liverpool rhymes
And Elvis sings we can’t go on together with Suspicious Minds
With Mick from the Stones struts Gimme Shelter is the rule
And Linda sings Blue Bayou soulful and cool
What do I get out of these melodies
It’s the sound track of my youth so precious to me
And on a CD or download giving them flight
But hearing them on vinyl is an earned right
It doesn’t matter which song you play
Let it make you smile forever stay.
