WHAT I SAW IN MY YORBA LINDA HOME


  Remembering being a boy in our home, a story 
  To tell,

  Between nineteen seventy two and nineteen seventy 
  Seventy seven.

  I saw our house as it was being built, met some 
  Neighbors that year,

  We  moved in early May, Starting school was hard so   
  Late as it was.

  We were having our pool put in that Summer, I remember                       
  the heat,

  Those were the days of Saturday morning cartoons, 
  Worries so few.

  The Buggs bunny, roadrunner hour, our new home was 
  So cool,

  The TV guide, late night classic movies were a Summer   
  Delight.

  Seasons in the sun, Music of the seventies, my friends 
  And all of the fun,

  Sunday morning watching Wonderama, swimming in 
  Our pool.

  Weekends and Summers, nine children on the loose,


  I remember Mannix, Hawaii five o', the Sunday night 
  Mysteries.

  Reading mad magazines on the porch,  a coke in the    
  Hot sun,

  On the phone with friends, the early seventies were 
  A great time.

  Musical sounds that said the Icecream man was coming, 
  I remember,

  Fourth of July, Fireworks that lit up the night, what a sight,
  Back in time,

  My Yorba Linda home, back in nineteen seventy two, I 
  Remember you.
