W-A-Y-Y-Y Back In the 20th Century

Remember when the dollar was worth 100 pennies Those were the days when we all had plenty Salaries back then were laughable when A million dollars was actually worth a million then But that was w-a-y-y-y back in the 20th century © Jack Ellison 2015

I wonder if I can fly... Through time and across the sky...I want to go back and look that Million dollars in the eye... Then grab my fair share before, to them, saying bye bye... But then, maybe not, for if they followed me back to take it back- I might sit down and begin to cry... Then whine... and we can't have that! Can we? I'm asking you, Why Oh Why?... For surly money comes from the sky...
