Whether his words are sung or spoken
Everyone knows that voice from Hoboken...

Reminder
There are stories I've put behind me
Like the fellow that left me unkindly,
But if I need a token
Of that guy from Hoboken,
The string on my finger reminds me!...

New Jersey Gal
I met a young lady in Hoboken
Actually, her good leg was broken
She used her cane,
Mileage to gain
Went by bus with a Hoboken token.

Whose Dream?
Whose dream is it anyway,
the lady in Hoboken
with the green hat,
the fellow on the bus

mom, dad, whose dream?
Claim it like your own suit,
the one you wear with pride
or at least appreciation.
From time to time,
take your dream out
and show it to the world....

we can say, “No,” to gypsies and refuse handouts to tramps
the desperate who steal find a new home in jail
*Entry for Lisa’s “Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves” contest...
