Poetry

And the beat goes on

once upon a time

leaving on a jet plane

rocking on the railroad

driving in the fast lane

walking on the wild side

we are family

everybody get up and sing

ch-ch-changes

those were the days my friend

we thought they’d never end

we’d live the life we choose

a family affair

only a phone call away

and so it goes

  2. Gosh, I could hear this tune in my head❤️ So hearty and merry! I pictured the slight bouncing of the train car and people crowded in one table! What a delight!
