[hometext] => True story,I just had to figure out how to make a song out of it. Kinda long, bear with me.
[bodytext] => Sammy told Rick, "Down at the shop we've got a safe that won't quite lock, tell me are you in?" The story begins Ricky heard him out and said, "Let's go" Where it might end, they didn't know But they were friends,through thick and thin Only two paths and they had to choose but they were down to nothing to lose..., (chorus) Take the shot, take the shot Don't have a thing 'cept what you got Nothing ventured, nothing gained It might hurt a little but it's only pain Steady hand and nerves of steel Ain't really living if it ain't real Tomorrow might come, who knows It might not Better take the shot Fifty grand later they were on the run Heading out west to have some fun Spend every dime On a really good time Doubled their luck in a gambling town Flew through the country, never touched down They were on a roll, lying low Peas in a pod just doing their thing Even good-'ol-boys got their dreams..., Chorus (Bridge) Sammy tells rick, "When it rolls around, I'll be the one that goes downtown" Rick didn't much like the sound of that but Sammy set him straight, told him the facts "Ricky, not a soul knows you were there so this little caper's my cross to bear It won't be long ,I'll be back here If you still feel bad, then you buy the beer" The money ran out and the running wore thin Sammy made a call and came on in To face the law and take the fall Back page crime, a little state time but it all worked out, sitting here tonight Are two good friends,laughing again I had to ask,"If you had the chance...," They said "No" but I saw the glance...., Chorus Tomorrow might come,who knows It might not Better take the shot [comments] => 2 [counter] => 200 [topic] => 34 [informant] => badlander [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
