I am not a band. I do not play an instrument. I do not sing. So why are you here, you ask? Because talented people with bands, instruments and voices have lent their talent to lyrics I've written.

Lyrics
How Good I Had It Then ©2002 Corey Parkman/John Parker Peapods and dew drops Bare feet and tank tops Summer mornin’s tending garden rows Fillin’ up a seed sack two rows and come back Grandma’s got some pancakes on the stove I had it so good but time flew so fast and I never realized Those days couldn’t last I held the world like a kite in the wind When I didn’t know how good I had it then Cane poles and shade trees Cork bobbing on the breeze All us grandkids fightin' tangled lines Folks sippin' sweet tea Talkin' kids and family Now I wish I had just listened for awhile I had it so good but time flew so fast and I never realized Those days couldn’t last I held the world like a kite in the wind When I didn’t know how good I had it then I still go fishing there with my son sometimes It’s amazing to see the wonder in his eyes Though grandpa’s gone and childhood is behind me It only takes my son’s smile to remind me I had it so good but time flew so fast and I never realized Those days couldn’t last I held the world like a kite in the wind When I didn’t know how good I had it then
