Jim Croce and a Rainy Morning

 

When the plane went down that was the end

Of telephone operators and bottles of time

But the electronics are kind enough to send

Good memories of when coffee was a dime

 

You really could mess around with Jim

If you knew your way around a chord

And heard his lyrics as a workman’s hymn

That spoke of art offered to the Lord

 

He gave us good thoughts through his guitar’s strum -

And, yeah, a wild moustache to back away from!
