What It Means To Be A Jones
Everything.
If all the world were Jones,
We’d take it down to the bones.
We’d take it to Davey
and we’d be the gravy, the potatoes, and even the meat.
We’d chew ourselves up and spit ourselves out.
From our head down to our feet.
We’d be our own force of Privates and Dictators…and, we’d do it all alone.
We’d follow a rock, a diamond that’s rough, or we’d follow a rolling stone.
Being a Jones is not a smooth path, but damned!
It sure is an adventure! The road? It is tough.
But a Cowboy’s enough, and so is a pirating Fool (especially if she’s been
through some school! That’s cool!).
Walking the path while we do all that math, and science,
and literature, too. A Jones might have stars that get crossed in the skies.
A Jones might have wisdom that gets crossed in the eyes.
A Jones might say words that could make someone blush.
A Jones might get called names, such as “lush.”
A Jones might be crazy, like nuts from a tree.
A Jones might be GOOD, just like someone like ME!
So, be glad you’re a Johnson, or even a Smith.
Cause being a Jones is it’s own unique Myth!
