A Ticket To Smile

Life can be so much fun.
If you know how it's done.
You can do this part.
If you open up your heart.
So if you really know how.
You can do this now.
Put a smile on your face.
Every time you go some place.
Share it to everyone you know.
Then your gloomy day will go.
So when your smile comes out.
There can be no doubt.
When you do this one thing.
It will make your heart sing.
Put your fears to rest.
Make you feel the best.

Ballad of Jimmy D

He left his mom and dad, to live on his own.
He found no joy, to be all alone.
He looked for a job and he found something good.
But all he wanted, was a new livelihood.
Jimmy's coming home, Jimmy's coming home.
So say a big hello, to the boy I know.
He left his special friends, without saying goodbye.
He left his lovely home, with tears in his eyes.
He wanted new friends, he could always give a hand.
He wished for those, who would always understand.
Jimmy's coming home, Jimmy's coming home.
So say a big hello, to the boy I know.
He left all his friends, who helped him along the way.
He wished, he said thanks, before he left that day.
He dreams of coming home, to his mom and dad.
And see all the friends, he once proudly had.
Jimmy's coming home, Jimmy's coming home.
So say a big hello, to the boy I know.

A Clever Grocer ?

Charlie owns a grocery store.
He put up a sign on the window.
Tomatoes 25 cents a piece
or three for a dollar.
The first customer walked in and complained.
"It's not fair!" the young lady declared.
"I should get four tomatoes for a dollar."
Charlie apologized and provided the customer
four tomatoes for a dollar.
The second customer stepped inside the store.
He made a big fuss about the sign.
"Your sign can't be right!" he said.
"It should be four tomatoes, instead of three."
Charlie agreed with the old man.
He sold him four tomatoes for a dollar.
Charlie's friend, Ben stood near by.
He heard both customers complaint.
Ben pulled Charlie aside.
"Aren't you forgetting something?" Ben asked.
"You should correct the window sign."
"What mistake?" Charlie asked.
"Before the sign was up," Charlie said.
"Customers bought only one tomato"
