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 could turn out a light, and go out at The brought new sounds to the air, The comics we bought, were of good gear, Superman, Spiderman, Marvelman, Dan, Superboy, Wonderboy, Fab Four, Rob Roy When I was small, before I went to school, We'd on the fields, or go to the pool, We might build a camp and hide 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 chew lots of gum, knock doors and run, Play do or dare, and get scared, The big would laugh they thought they were hard, We'd kiss our first chick and show our stick, Those are gone but it's still goin' on, I remember those days and it turns me on I first heard rock an' when I was ten, It was Haley's voice, I was layin' in bed, around the clock was a big hit, But I didn't catch on 'till I heard sing, Hound dog was the and it didn't take long, To get a guitar and boppin' along Well, I got up a group and wrote tunes, Hit the charts in June, man, In the summertime, I've lived hard, I've fine, Seen the world, and flown, the best, seen the worst.
