I will never forget |
|
My Brooklyn high
school, Lafayette |
|
It's where I met |
|
My first sweetheart
Yvette |
|
It was there I had
my first cigarette |
|
Played basketball
but always missed
the net |
|
On the school's
track I also was no
threat |
|
I was better when
playing with the
chess set |
|
I never liked
working up a sweat |
|
I hung out at the
local luncheonette |
|
In the back room we
played cards &
roulette |
|
One guy always
played the clarinet |
|
So we created a
singing quartet |
|
I dropped out when I
got an old corvette |
|
Wanted to drive
around with my new
brunette |
|
Her name was Annette |
|
She was quite the
coquette |
|
Which sometimes made
me upset |
|
Spent so much money
on her, I went into
debt |
|
Then she dumped me
and joined the jet
set |
|
I bounced back when
I adopted a loyal
pet |
|
Haven't found any
girl this loyal yet |
|
Gotta go now but
don't you fret |
|
I wrote this all
down lest I forget. |
