Songs of Old

Since you left me; I can't do anything but, weep

I sit and cry to the songs of old

It's hard to keep a good man down ; so here is a list of songs

So you may know

What makes it easy; they are so full, of my emotions

It's Crying Time Again; she's going to leave me

Walk On By, my Blue Eyes Crying In the Rain

Man; my heart, so full of pain but, I'll keep on singing 
He stopped loving her today you are now, Bobby Golsboro''s " Honey"

I'm losing my mind, I can't think or work 

Take This Job and Shove It

These words, their rhymes, wring out such pain in me

I've even stopped believing

I know now; It's Only Make Believe

I am so tired of; Goodbye Time

Counting Flowers On the Wall and  these Four Walls That Surround Me

The Grand Tour and Fifteen Years Ago

Baby you know, I sing this one here, when I've been Drinking

She Got the Goldmine and I Got the Shaft

Please darling; come back to me and melt

You're Cheating Heart

Because, I am Crazy about  you

About This Poem

About the Author

Region, Country: U.S. A. Indiana, Valparaiso, USA

Favorite Poets: Robert Frost, Walt Whitman, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Carl Sandburg these I have read some And so Many More. I have no Favorite or any that I dislike. Whom I consider to be poets; of course there are many Dark and hateful souls, who would cry out and to I will lend an ear, but some. They just leave a awful taste in my heart that I can not bear to read twice. Let alone as many times I would do normally; as I must.
