Long Socialbeauty Poems

Toledo Town

when i was a lad about thirteen twas the prettiest town you,ve ever seen
you could go downtown late at night and see the shimmer of glimmering lights
that was a long long time ago the lights were lit on theatre row
not much to see now after dark just seagate center and promenade park

now do you think that you and i could do one thing before we die
do you think we could restore the beauty that was here before
lets take the banks from the middlegrounds bring the theaters back downtown
put some inexspensive eaterys back bring back places like tiedtkes and jacks

our city fathers sure must see how great it was for you and me
had lots of folks come to our door in this city on the maumee shore
folks would come from miles around to see the beauty we had found
yes we used to wear a golden crown right here in toledo town
