The Way It Was In '51

歌詞

Sixty-Six was still a narrow two-lane highway Harry Truman was the man who ran the show The bad Korean war was just begining And I was just three years too young to go Country Music hadn't gone to New York City yet And a service man was proud of what he'd done Hank and Lefty crowded ev'ry jukebox That's the way it was in fifty one. There's so much about the good old days I'd love to tell And there's folks around I know still remember well Slow dancin' close together when a ballad played 'Cause a thing called Rock and Roll was yet to come It was a big year for a drive-in rest'rant carhop That's the way it was in fifty one. There's so much about the good old days I'd love to tell And there's folks around I know still remember well Slow dancin' close together when a ballad played 'Cause a thing called Rock and Roll was yet to come It was a big year for a drive-in rest'rant carhop That's the way it was in fifty one. Yeah! Hank and Lefty crowded ev'ry jukebox Oh Lord That's the way it was in fifty one.
