Types of Notations

Gulppie Grande Cupp 1972 (United States)



I walked in
He was strumming a banjo
The others were cleaning a
Corner and flute
they had strange fruits
They said we're apples
Sweet exotic apples they
Said twenty trees grow in
an old tunnel down by the
Summaz Creek
They spoke of old
Transistor radios
They never spoke of the
Emeralds and gems
A fortune we later found out
A pirate from the late 1800's
Stashed his treasure there
Me being a newly wed
I wanted to speak this to
My bride, maybe we could go
To the Creek and find treasures.
She works in the City, for a Judo
Promoter. Jupiter Promotions
They have a planets on there logo
the emeralds are said to be as green
as the outlines of there lettering.
Her brother leads a band, maybe
He'll be interested in the instruments.
