CAT Tracks for September 18, 2009
SATURDAY IN THE PARK |
I think it was the Fourth of July...
Thought a little musical accompaniment might set the tone for this post.
Compliments of the group Chicago, from their 1972 album, Chicago V.
If you happened to burst into song when you read that title, then you are old like me!
Oh...heard it on an oldies station?
You're actually only 39?
I could be catty and observe that you must have led a hard life...lookin' a little rough around the edges for 39!
Huh...
What's that you say?
Oh, that's right...I forgot.
You work for Cairo School District Number One...
Heck, you're probably only 24...just look like 64!
Anyway, the picture below...
Hey...you think that's bad?
You oughta hear me sing it...
From the September 17th edition of The Cairo Citizen...
Saturday in the park,
I think it was the Twelfth of September
People working, people laughing
Some men wielding chainsaws
Passing cars blaring rap songs
Can you dig it? Yes, I can
And I've been waiting such a long time
For Saturday
