Just to clarify it... the lines quoted from Get Down Home are the chorus. The verses all rhymed. The lines from the song I just finished are from a verse. In that song, the chorus rhymes. For a long time, Get Down Home was one of the most requested songs that I sang, and people sang along on the chorus after the first time through. Not once did anyone ever comment that it didn't rhyme.

I think Poppa Gator nailed it.. If the song is saying what you want it to say, the lack of a rhyme may well go completely unnoticed. Thanks for the examples..
