How Did I Get Here
How did I get here?
That's not easy to explain
I got older to start with
I lost David big factor
I quit being able to walk
This was the deciding factor
He didn't know what to do
So he brought me here
Westridge Health Center
I chose it out of possible places
I was here before and they were nice
So that is why I chose it
Well I have been here four or five years
Its not so bad, I have my own room
I don't have to share with anyone
Sometimes that's nice, sometimes it's lonesome
I feel at times I have no control over things
But in many cases, I still have a, choice
So I guess that's how I got here
