Memories of a Musician

You played for me My tiny pigtails bounced to the harmonica You gave me my love for music Leathery hands move gracefully Playing it all by ear And I danced Can you hear me? The fire of the 21 guns Breaks the rhythm Scares the notes away like birds Don’t listen to the Congregation Don’t listen to the Bishop The off key notes I won’t dance Your song will get you to heaven And greater Where the greens are greener than ever My life won’t B(b) Because You played for me And I danced
