Back in '59 we was doin' just fine

Makin' out and havin' fun and movin' on

Back then we'd laugh and love and sing

As we was doin' our own thing

Tappin' time to our favourite skiffle song.


Dreamy days and summer light 

Balmy breezes starry night 

It was a scene we all wanted to explore

When we was ridin' on the wind

It never felt like we had sinned

Man ya couldn't wish for any more.


Puttin' on the style for mile after mile

Not carin' what tomorrow had in store

Never puttin' on the agony 

The boys and me and Lonnie

Thought that time would last for evermore.


Hell I know to see us now

You might get to wonderin' how

Those boys survived so long until this time

Well I can tell y'all today

Those days they'd never fade away

They'd play and play and play inside our mind.


Puttin' on the style for mile after mile

Not carin' what tomorrow had in store

Never puttin' on the agony 

The boys and me and Lonnie

Thought that time would last for evermore.


Puttin' on the style for mile after mile

Not carin' what tomorrow had in store

Never puttin' on the agony 

The boys and me and Lonnie

Thought that time would last for evermore.
