Racked up an older Long Play record to listen, to reminisce and to muse,
With a few stacked thirty three and a third albums from which to choose,
Tracked down my old WAR LP seasoned with a slight taste of the Blues,
Backed by strong vocal lyrics a smoother melody than any shot of booze!
Bells mingling jingling while conga drums gently key an organ humming,
Tingling sounds gelling lifting up your Soul so you are no longer bumming,
Not a ding-a-ling still struggling to find strings on an air guitar strumming!
No commingling lyrics just Deliver the Word as written with a soft drumming.
A smooth flowing lyrical master piece treasure as any your Life has heard!
Showing how to Deliver the Word less going through changes ~ is it absurd?
Knowing a Long Play record can eliminate misery's company if it's preferred,
Blowing by emergencies and urgency cause Prayers have them all deterred!
We're listening to your tears give away to a joyous torment as we sway!
Glistening Soulfully and sparkling from the heights and depths that array,
Christening heartfelt changes needed that are always somehow in play,
Bristling delivered in words by a song's musical lyrics still heard today!
