callin' detroit
are you there

callin' detroit
out there some where

callin' detroit
a friend of mine

callin' detroit
be so kind

answer
your telephone
detroit
don't leave me alone

got a problem
with my life
imange that
it's an x x wwife

callin' detroit
answer your phone

callin' detroit
dont' leave me alone

whata' i say
anyway
whata i do
with 1 left shoe?

callin' detroit
not shoe i spelled it write
oh well
try as i might
oh hell
do as i will

callin' detroit
any way you spell
callin' detroit
ain't no way to tell

what i'm thinkin'
what i'll do
but detroit
i'm callin' you


hello elvis
merle & johnny cash
slim & jim & all of them
jimmy & janis
and all those old singers

remeber
the old gunslingers
jonny horton
and the streets of laredo
sum other song about a tornado

elvis's pelvis
the beetles 2 or 3 o 4
it's rock-n-roll
we adore

but ain't i a bore

callin' detroit
answer the phone
callin' you
callin' elvis
callin' home

Hahaha! This poem's got some references to some good ole singers long gone, plus some funny lines and also some melancholy ones like the last stanza:

"callin' detroit
answer the phone
callin' you
callin' elvis
callin' home"

Great job, Steve!
