about

This song is about my Great Grandmother and my brother.

lyrics

Did you know Jenny from Puerto Rico?
Ran the parlour, Brooklyn at one time
There's a boy from Jersey wherever he go she go
Because they share a laugh, a voice a piece of mind
And in his eyes her memory shines every Christmas time

Did you know that Jenny fancied the bingo
Played it with the boy once, maybe twice
And the boy he's been dating the gringo's
Jenny wouldn't mind if they were right
Sitting on the arm of her chair those vacation nights

And in my mind there in my memory
well there's the boy that I call Boris G.
And all his love, well that belongs to me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Funny little smile, those perfect curls
And as a young man sweet talks all the girls
He is my best friend in the whole wide world

Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

And when this old man becomes old and gray
Speaking voice will sound like Jenny did
I hope he's there to send me on my way
This sweet old man was one hell of a kid
You know I got to watch him fly
Fly high

And in my mind, yeah in my memory
well there's the boy that I call Boris G.
And all my love, well that belongs to he
Yeah yeah yeah

Those turtlenecks and all those perfect curls
And as a young man sweet talks all of the girls
He is my best friend in the whole wide world

And in another life we walked the streets of Spain
We got caught in a cold cold viking rain
And I wonder if we knew each other
Knew each other
Knew each other's name

Ohhh

Oh yeah

Ohhhh

You know I got to watch him fly
