It Was Great - 1958

Do you remember? - seems like yesterday
They used to play "Blueberry Hill"
It was great - 1958

And do you recall
Running late down the hall?
Johnny better B. Goode
It was great - 1958

Home late from the prom
Silence from Mom
Dad checkin' the Chevy for dents
Graves Drugs was the place
For after school dates
And "Yes, Coca-Cola is still 5 cents."

These mem'ries will never change
Wherever the road may wind
These are some of the best of times
It was great - 1958
And so we celebrate - 1958

Shoo - den - shoo - do - wah!
