「誰も行かないところに、誰かが行かねばならない」が口癖だった長井健司記者の夢
それは“歌手デビュー”だった・・
（大学時代のコンサート会場にて）
中学時代からギブソンを片手に作詞・作曲も手掛けた
卒業時、長井記者が同級生に宛てた一文にはこんな記述が・・
「人は、声をはりあげ絶叫する時があっていいと思うんです。
人は、気分よくうたっている時がいちばんの自由です」
※原文ママ
（2007年9月、タイにて）
「俺の曲は絶対に売れる！」
40代半ばを過ぎて尚、歌手デビューを諦めてはいなかった長井記者
ここに長井記者が作詞した『ふるさと』と『ヤキイモ』を紹介します
********************************************************
『ふるさと』
１
ふるさと想う こころは同じ
語り明かせば 泣けてくる
強がり言っても 一人で泣いた
熱い涙が しみる夜
２
帰ってゆける ふるさとは
遠きにありて 想うものと
ふるさとあれど 帰れないのは
振り切れぬ思いがあったから
裏切れなかったあの娘（こ）だから
後ろ姿に別れを言う
これ以上 もう会ってはだめだ
余計に別れが辛くなる
３
ふるさとに似た なつかしさだけ
思い出させてくれた娘（ひと）
恋人に似た ふたりだったけど
二度と寄り添わぬ ふたつの影
恋人に似た 白い雪の世界
せつない雪が 降り止まぬ
※原文ママ
********************************************************
『ヤキイモの詩』
※サビ
焼きたての ホカホカの
ホクホク食べる ヤキイモだい
ヤキイモの 安売りの
おいちゃん来るの 待ってたんだよ
ヤキイモのおいちゃんが 今年もまた来る
街角にひとときの こころのオアシス
「ヤキイモがおいしいよ」って 街角に響く
ふるさとに届くよう 「とうちゃん、元気だ」
だけど 都会では ヤキイモが振り向かれないんだよ～
ほかにオイシイおかしがあって振り向かれないんだよ～
いまの都会じゃ、ふとり過ぎのこどもたちであふれかえる
本当の甘いおやつを 街角のどこかに忘れていやしませんか～
※原文ママ
