POEMS: I’d Really Love It Like That! and My Favorite
These were composed for the CPC Friday Fling poetry challenge. Our theme is favorite places, and the classic Chris Kenner rock song “I Like It Like That” was offered for inspiration or lyric rewrites. I did both.
I’D REALLY LOVE IT LIKE THAT!
Come on
(Come on let me show you why its grand)
Come on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
Come on-on-on-on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
The name of the place
(is Salisbury England)
There is a little place
across the sea.
The name of the place
is Sa-lis-bu-ry
Now you take Calie
and I’ll take you
and we’re gonna lock away
all our blues!
Come on
(Come on let me show you why its grand)
Come on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
Come on-on-on-on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
The name of the place
(is Salisbury England)
The last time I was over there
I paid my dues.
There was some lonely cat
meowin’ the blues.
Cathedral close choir boys
chantin’ some.
I know they were callin’ me
to come man come!
Come on
(Come on let me show you why its grand)
Come on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
Come on-on-on-on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
The name of the place
(is Salisbury England).
Now it’s in southwest England;
a bit more sun.
Near old Stonehenge ruins;
good pagan fun.
Lush meadows echo love doves;
Picnics in the park.
Just the place for lovers
kissin’ in the dark.
Come on
(Come on let me show you why its grand)
Come on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
Come on-on-on-on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
The name of the place
(is Salisbury England)
An old farm in the country
outside town.
Two could have a simple life
and seldom frown.
Now you take Calie
and I’ll take you
and we’re gonna lock away
all our blues!
Come on
(Come on let me show you why its grand)
Come on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
Come on-on-on-on
(Come on, let me show you why it’s grand)
The name of the place
(is Salisbury England)

Revisewd lyrics to Chris Kenner’s “I Like It Like That”
MY FAVORITE
Anywhere she is
is my favorite place
The best time of all
is when I see her face.
The love of my life,
she has style, she has grace.
Any space she’s in
is my favorite space.
