Back in '46 the I was born, learned a lot of things, it was the end of the war, Sweets were on ration, wasn't much fashion, But everybody had fun, there was so to be done, in the air, new coats on the chair, You turn out a light, and go out at night The radio new sounds to the air, The comics we bought, were full of gear, Superman, Spiderman, Marvelman, Dan, Superboy, Wonderboy, Fab Four, Rob Roy When I was small, before I went to school, play on the fields, or go to the pool, We might a camp and hide from out dads, Or go to the and stay out 'till dark, Play doctors and nurse and all the girls, They'd tell their mums and we be cursed We'd lots of gum, knock doors and run, Play do or dare, and get scared, The big boys would they thought they were hard, We'd kiss our first chick and thew our stick, Those are gone but it's still goin' on, I remember days and it still turns me on I first heard rock an' roll I was ten, It was Haley's voice, I was layin' in bed, Rock the clock was a big hit, But I catch on 'till I heard Elvis sing, Hound dog was the song and it take long, To get a guitar and boppin' along Well, I got up a group and some tunes, Hit the in early June, man, In the summertime, I've lived hard, I've fine, Seen the world, and flown, the best, seen the worst.
