Dear Mystery Writer,
This was a fun song that I think all of us who are above the age of fifty can relate to. *smile* I think we have to laugh to keep from crying, right?? haha! Thanks and good luck in the voting!

Another good one. I love your sense of humor. And if somebody in country music doesn't pick up on this one and sing it, I'll be disappointed. Very well done in my uneducated opinion.

I think this has potential. . . I tried to sing along but parts of it just don't quite work for me. It's a good start. One place for sure that I kept saying when I sang along was the last line (which I really like) "and I just got finished off a-loadin' up my wife. I had fun trying to sing along.

well, the way I "sing" it, the meter works just fine. I've gotten a bunch of sixes so apparently it works for some others. I'm sorry it didn't for you - truly - wish I knew how to write music and you tube it so you could see what I mean.
Am going to see how your version of the last line "sounds.".
-
I would really like to hear you sing it on youtube. If you get it figured out let me know. I do okay with music but there's a reason I don't write it. :) Maybe this will be your debut and the next time I hear it, you'll be in Vegas. :)

laughing. That'll be the day. Maybe, If I'm lucky I'll find somebody who plays the guitar and writes songs.
-
And they will give those lyrics the perfect tune they deserve. :)

thank you!!!!!!

Brilliant! Wonderful quirkiness, love the rhyming language, the rhythms and the dialect, all meshed together, can hear this on the ole guitar, I'd enjoy listening, do you have a tune to go with it?

How many movies has old Sam been in, from Roadhouse to Tombstone? Good luck in the contest. Learned about a new ailment lately, Gouty Arther Itis. Excellent post.

oh brother. so sorry.
Old Sam might not like my poem, but I thought his picture had just the right touch.
Take care.

This is good, but I can't picture a melody that would go with it, but then, I never can come up with a melody, so take that for what it's worth. Good luck in the contest.

thank you. I can't either. If I could, I''d one-finger it on my granddaughter's key board.

A very well-written fun song lyrics. When we can joke around abput our age. We still hVd that inner child with us who always looking for fun things to do. Arthur Itis skipped me, but I have other problems that keep.me seated.

Too funny! This could be a winner! All us "old" folk can truly appreciate Arthur Itis' lament! You've captured in lyrical humor recollections of the past and reality of the present! Love it!
