HOPE FOR THE RISING GENERATION

The other day I heard the old song "Travelin' Man" by Ricky Nelson. And in case you’re not familiar with the song, here are the lyrics:

I'm a travelin' man, made a lot of stops all over the world

And in every port I own the heart of at least one lovely girl

I've a pretty Senorita waiting for me, down in old Mexico

If you're ever in Alaska, stop and see my cute little Eskimo

Oh, my sweet Fraulien, down in Berlin town, makes my heart start to yearn

And my China doll down in old Hong Kong waits for my return

Pretty Polynesian baby, over the sea, I remember the night

When we walked in the sand of Waikiki and I held you, oh, so tight

Somehow in the background, I can hear my granddaughter’s voice shouting,

“OH, WHAT A CHEATING, SEXIST PIG!!!!!”

This new generation is turning out alright.
