Once again

 

Now and then I wonder what you’d think about it all

You’d probably say “just round them up, and up against the wall”

You would call them criminals, parasites and thieves

Men devoid of honesty, men without believes

Well I hate to tell you that nothing much has changed

They swap the names around, but the deeds all remain the same

I wish I could see you once again and sit beside you for a little while

Though I feel your presence now and then

I miss your laughter and your smile

You were never one to mingle words, you spoke your mind

For patience was no friend of yours, you were always pressed for time

Some would say you failed to do the things you should have done

Well, they don’t seem to understand, that was not part of your plan

Oh how right you were when you said its worth while

Face the world each morning, but son do it in style

Pa, how right you were when you said let it flow

Keep your eyes wide open, and life will show you where to go    

I wish I could see you once again ….
