Here are 10 things you should know about Dennis O’Keefe…
You think that money is everything
And yet it's anybody's spring.
Go make a fortune, become a king
And still it's anybody's spring.
And if you flash a bank roll
Do you suppose the brook would care?
Or that a rose would say
'There goes a millionaire!'?
It's more than diamonds around a ring
Because it's anybody's spring.
You may be born with the silver spoon
And yet it's anybody's moon.
You couldn't buy a ticket
To hear the first robin sing.
It's free because
It's anybody's spring.
