There is a special song that I have been looking for - for a long time. It has been finally found. It's titled, "Old People", by Archie Bell & the Drells.

Do you ever think about where you will be if you live to get old? Some people don't. In some nursing homes, people are very cruel to the elderly.

I met a praying old lady in her 90's in the nursing home. She was in a wheel chair. One day she fell, and she hit the floor, and nobody was around to help her up. Somehow she managed to help herself up. She told me that sometimes she would ask God, "Lord, you still there?"

We get scared sometimes. When I was leaving out the door, I was thinking that old lady could be me one day. That's when Archie Bell and the Drells fell on my mind with their song. It was a song released in 1978. I'm Gail Nobles, and that's the song for today. To hear the original group, Archie Bell and the Drells, and the original song, "Old People", go to YouTube.com.
