He Wrote the Songs
Christina M | March 6, 2009
I’ve been around forever, Since I wrote my very first song. I put the products and the melodies together; I wrote jingles, And I wrote the songs. I wrote the song that all the Peppers sang. I wrote the song that made it through the rain. I wrote the song where we broke down and […]
