As I was awaking in the mornings beauty,
A thought came into my mind
Of a time long ago,
A time of such delight and happiness.
Each evening I would go up ‘the pub’,
There I would meet good friends,
We would chat and laugh,
Drink our pints,
Play darts and cards,
An evening full of fun.
But then occasionally on a Saturday night
The ‘singing beer’ would be served,
And Don would start it off,
His magnificent voice filling the bar.
We would all join in and sing our hearts out,
Singing all evening,
Drinking good beer
With the wonderful friends around me.
Such wonderful times of my younger days,
But not lost,
As they are saved in my memories
For me to bring back into my mind
And remember those wonderful times.
