Introduction
It’s a rare condition this day and age to read any good news on the newspaper page. Whatever happened to predictability? The milkman, the paperboy, evening T.V. And you knew who you were then; girls were girls and men were men … Guys like us we had it made, those were the days.
Relationships
They were four men living all together, yet they were all alone. Love, exciting and new. Right alone in my chair, she won’t know that I’m there. What would we do, baby, without us? There’s a time for love and a time for living. Try, try, try to separate them, it’s an illusion. Your heart is true; you’re a pal and a confidant. Come and knock on our door, we’ve been waiting for you. You want to go where everybody knows your name and they’re always glad you came. I want Charles in charge of me.
Struggle
Making your way in the world today takes everything you’ve got. A poor mountaineer who barely kept his family fed like Robinson Crusoe as primitive as can be. Keep Manhattan and give me that countryside. They’ll have theirs, and you’ll have yours, and I’ll have mine. Good times—ain’t we lucky we got them? He’s always on a steady course. A long lost friend gives every dark street a light at the end. We can rebuild him.
Success
Believe it or not I’m walking on air. I’m living on the air in Cincinnati. We got the world spinning right in our hands. Feels so right, it can’t be wrong. We finally got a piece of the pie. You’re going to make it after all. And we’ll do it our way, yes our way.
Brief Interruption
That includes the products of your sponsor of the week: Squeeze Comb Lilt Home Permanent. Winston tastes good like a cigarette should. Do you see how easy it is to make a man happy? Why not give your husband a carton of Philip Morris cigarettes? Instant Sanka—the hearty coffee you can drink as strong as you like. K-E-Double L-O-Double-Good Kellogg’s best to you! General Electric flash bulbs, the flash bulbs you can depend on for better pictures, presents:
Control
A couple of guys who were up to no good started making trouble in my neighborhood. What do you do when you’re branded and you know you’re a man? The eyes of the ranger are upon you, any wrong you do he’s going to see. Been in trouble with the law since the day they was born. Still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. Suicide is painless; someday the mountain might get them, but the law never will.
Conclusion
Welcome back to that same old place that you laughed about. When the country was falling apart, Betsy Ross got it all sewed up. And they say he ran away to boldly go where no man has gone before. Believe it or not it’s just me. As days go by there’s room for you, room for me.
