The Mystery Singer
Poets Notation:
(We had been out of Humes high school a few years,
Old school chums names were being forgotten, but not their faces)
Word Spread Thru Our Porky's Drive-In Dig
A Humes High School Boy Was Singing Big,
They Said That Elvis Presley Was His Name.
He Was Guitar Singing His Way To Fame..
I Knew Not Who This New Singer Was.
His Name Was A Big Porky's Buzz.
I Felt Confused And Somewhat Mad.
Just Could Not Remember This Elvis Lad.
Soon Humes Would Have A Football Game.
We Walked Sidelines With A Macho Claim.
There Was A Young Lad Strolling Around.
Dressed Prancey And Fancy Like A Clown.
I Felt Sorry For This Lad As I Knew
He Was A Humes High Boy Like Us Too.
A Crowd Was Gathering With Great Joy.
They Were Bugging This Ex-Humes High Boy.
Thought His Clothes Was A Source Of The Fun.,
This Fun Was Soon To Be Over And Done.
As He Walked To Me With A Smiling Face
I'd Defend To The End This Young Mans Case.
He Smiled As We Shook Hands In Embrace
Elvis !, They Screamed All Over The Place.
I Was As Stunned As I Will Ever Be.
When I Found That He Was Elvis,
And I Would Be Only Me !
Seeks to encourage and inspire!
