Lyrics and tune
Not dated till date
When lonely your comfort mate
Cook and Clifford
Bass and Drums
Joined the band
When they were very young
Blues and Country
Vocal and Political
Rivers Bayous and Wars
They sang em all
Every song a classic
Orchestration simplistic
Consistent pattern of their music
Path of the band highly individualistic
Simplicity the key to brilliance
No one followed it more than Creedence
Creedence named after a friend
Clearwater a commercial for Olympia Beer
Revival the 4 band members oath of renewal
Songs about the war
Fought at Vietnam
Got them name and fame
International Rock band they became
Played at Woodstock
Hall of famers
Influenced future players
Differences cropped
Regarding the direction
Of the bands path
John carried the band
Others wanted their hand
Uneasy truce
Kept them glued
Mardi Gras
Lacked the class
Sign off album
Failed audience expectation
Bad blood broke the band
Never to perform again
Record company
All about the money
Label fantasy
Brought them to reality
5 songs to hit number 2
Album placed 500 weeks on the charts
Added more to their records
Reached the position
Aspired by everyone
Biggest Band in the World
Alone at the top
Next step downfall
Albums of the century
Every Album included
Songs of the Century
Also picked by many
Most DJed band in history
Playing as Soundtrack
In Hollywood films compulsory
Playing across Colleges and Universities
Mystic in their music
Reason for their longevity
Self titled album
Sold Platinum
Bayou Country
With Proud Mary
Record stores went dry
Green River
Second in the same year
Critical and commercial success
Churning out hits now just a process
Willie and the poor boys
Did the trick with a Hatrick
No one more prolific
In music & lyric
Cosmo's Factory
Anti Vietnam war battle cry
Sales skyrocketing
Platinums no more limiting
Pendulum a few months later
Last performance together
All original no cover
Goodbye CCR forever
