Old School

Old School
By joeys guy



I remember lessons from the old school

It was a code an unwritten rule




As a male I would get to my feet

To give the elderly or a woman the seat




When taking a girl out for a day

As the guy I would always pay




Music was understood and had meaning

A lot of songs today sounds like screaming




Entertainers wore costumes or dressed in clothes

Today so much body they expose




You didn’t always have to lock doors

No fences had to protect stores




As a young kid I played outside

Strangers didn’t bother us, we didn’t have to hide




We would hangout till late hours of night

When older we hung out even till daylight




Women could sit outside late and talk

It was safe to take a late night walk




Any time was safe to go stroll in the park

Try doing that now in the dark




People now wear pants down almost to the knees

It’s ugly, pick them up please




What happened to those good old days

Time passes and kids go through a craze
