I WANT TO SING A SONG TODAY

 
i want to sing a song for jake
but thus far my singing voice
can only sing damn damn damn
besides
there's that CD "Buena Vista Social Club"
singing to me in this moment
a gift from Ken, i also sing for him
knowing a little of the place you'uns art in
i want to sing a song...
this one's for jake
this one's for ken
i promise to learn
more than damn damn damn
