Saw the Boys of Summer
Down by the River,
Pulling Mussels From a Shell...
Says I, "Feeling Alright?"
and they said
it was The End of the World as We Know it
or at least The End of the Innocence
and the Life in the Fast Lane
had turned each of them
into a Desperado,
Bad Company
and Bad to the Bone...
So this being The Year of the Cat,
I hopped the Last Train to Clarksville
which just happened to be
The Wabash Cannonball,
with ol' Casey Jones conducting
who said we could go Truckin'
over to Brownsville Station
and board the City of New Orleans,
switching later to the Peace Train
heading to the Last Resort...
Well, saw a Rockin' Robin
and felt I Can See Clearly Now
and here came Willie and the Hand Jive
and Can't You See
the Blue Sky ahead
and Everything is all Right?...
