View Finder


"View Finder" by RER

Flying June Bugs and Chicken Chokers
Crop Dusters Bombing the Town
Returnable Bottles and Two Cent Bubblegum
I wish those things were around

I carved her Initials in the Gum Tree
Truest Love I ever Felt
The Smell of Rain on a Delta Saturday
Another Summer in the Cotton Belt

Oh .. How I wish
and Oh .. How I Miss
Those Simple Things Most of All
Like Standing in the Front Seat of Granny's Ole Chevrolet
I Had No Worries at All

Dime Store Popsicles and Penny Dum Dums
All Entertainment for Me
A City Dump Bicycle, Red Rider Bee Bee Gun
I was Rich as a Boy Could Be

Traveling the World Through a View Finder
I held the Earth in My Hands
A Click of the Finger Not a Moment to Linger
I Explored those Distant Lands

And
Oh .. How I wish
and Oh .. How I Miss
Those Simple Things Most of All
Like Standing in the Front Seat of Granny's Ole Chevrolet
I Had No Worries at All
