Dads Muscle
greg Anderson 1959 (michigan)
If I tell you true
The thump in your chest will dare miscue
And if it does you will know real trouble
Even a President can,t send his double
So in my heart I tell you true
The thump in your chest will dare miscue
What matters most as everyone knows
Without that Thump
The story can't go
So lie me down beneath the sun
Let it beat me , till its done
About this poem
Its about my fathers heart attack
