LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL
When I was just a youngster My mother bought for me A pair of Sears' rol-ler skates A lot of falls I could foresee. I skated on the cemetery walks On the road in front of our home But years passed by; I grew older To roller rinks, I began to roam. I bought a pair of white shoe-skates To skating rinks around I went Cotton Bowl Rink and Vickery Rink A lot of skating and time was spent. Armed Forces Service Men were there Army, Navy, Marines all came Present were the Air Corp Men They were my favorite, I always claimed. There was this one Air Force guy I don't recall his name When trio time would come 'round To Myrt and I; he'd always claim. My mother use to watch us skate She could not understand Why girls would fall for-ward But back-ward, the boys would land. My skates have seen some good ole times Happy memories: fun times to re-call I met and made a lot of friends All I can say is, "LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL"! B M Carathers |
