For The Weekend






dverse

MY CHAIR

To be sung to the above Platters Song  " My Prayer"

when the twilight is gone
and no song birds are singing
when the twilight is gone
time for  evening to start
and here comes the part
where i sit and stare
saying  a prayer in my chair

my chair
i flop into - great view
at the end of the day
by the ocean so blue

my chair
in my lounge room so vast
with the world far away
in my white plastic chair

tonight
i will sit  - drink in hand
o pressing my toes
on the very wet sand

my chair
all i own mine to give
have no home have no things
for as long as i live
i will always be there
at the end of my chair

  2. Oh I was hoping for a parody - My Prayer - The Platters I think is the one I remember best. This was a really good one. Kudos to you. I enjoyed it. You always take me to your favorite places!

    1. 'My Prayer " is probably one of the most irritating corny songs ever written...this was supposed to be a spoof .

  7. I would love to sit in a chair with my feet in the sand... a drink will have to suffice.
