Music - The Spirit In The Sky Poem by Paul Warren

When I was 13 I thought I had it made
Long hair and side burns making the grade
It was Peace Love and Music as my creed
And listening to the latest music my need

And I wanted to show that I was quite hip
Looking to make my first single purchase rip
So I looked for 'Norman Greenbaum'
Who recorded 'Spirit in the Sky' away from his farm

So my mates came around and to this song got down
And we thought how cool it was without a frown
This song has stayed with me since those days
A smile on my face and memories in so many ways.
