First Love

I'm sitting here at my keyboard.
Will I write about a Chevy or a Ford?

Or will my mind drift away.
And remember some long lost day.

There's a lot to remember about the past.
Even though it went so fast.

Seems my life began at fifteen.
Got my license, could make the scene.

Needed money there's no doubt.
So I got me a newspaper route.

Saved my pennies and saved my dimes.
These were simpler times.

A hundred twenty five had me hopping.
Now I could go used car shopping.

My sights were set on that Chevy over there.
Two tone green, it was so fair.

A two door hardtop, a nineteen fifty.
Dual pipes, she sure was nifty.

Inside, chrome top bows up above.
This was the one, I was in love.

Big fat salesman with cigar wagging
Said three fifty and I ain't bragging.

This beauty will sell today or tomorrow.
Better get more money, beg, steal or borrow.

I begged and pleaded with my Dad.
But a couple bucks was all he had.

We slowly walked off the lot, I couldn't pay.
Sixty five years later, I sadly remember that day.
It was the day my dream car got away.

Sorry I missed this. BobW that last one was a sad one but a good one

So here is one sung to a familiar tune we sang as a kid. I can't remember the name of the tune, but this was a spoof of said tune: (Disclaimer: I am not the author, maybe not for Chev guys)

On a hill far away stood an old Chevrolet and the bumpers were touching the ground

I opened the door, and fell through the floor and the roof was all falling down.

I pulled out the choke, the steering wheel broke, and all I could see was
smoke smoke smoke...

I prayed to the Lord, he brought me a Ford, and towed my old Chevy away...~~~
