Dear Greg Happy Late Birthday 2011 !!
At first I couldn’t think of what to say
That would make a difference in your day
Although you are now a full grown man
I’ll always be your biggest fan
‘Cause when you told me about your gig
I knew that this was something big
All those buttons, faders and wires
Have lifted your station to someone I’d hire
I know your new job is something great
And you will be a high-tech teacher first rate
Helping kids and teachers alike
You’re finding a niche that suits you just right.
Years ago I started to play --
Guitar in public, sometimes for pay
And now you’ve discovered this great avocation
You’ll never need another vacation!
‘Cause “doing sound” and “singing out”
Bring such joy - there is no doubt.
You’ll meet new friends and play great songs
With audiences everywhere singing along.
I know that music is more than “cords”,
And you have to remember a lot of words
But songs like yours go right to the heart
And this is where your true value starts
Sharing with others your joy of life
With melodies strong and support for your wife
I know that line doesn’t quite make sense
But I have to give Catherine her due recompense!
Your 31st birthday now has come and gone
And the future is yours to enjoy from now on
Remember that a soundboard can be a big pain
But if you mix it just right you will certainly “gain”!!
Love Dad, December 4, 2011
