Song Released: 1982
A Child of the Fifties Lyrics
I grew up a child of the 50s
Learned to dance to the beat of rock & roll
Television was my friend
I Love Lucy, Rin Tin Tin
Kissed my first girl when I was 10 years old
Verse 2 (Phil):
Took a turn for the worse in the 60s
Saw some real...
Learned to dance to the beat of rock & roll
Television was my friend
I Love Lucy, Rin Tin Tin
Kissed my first girl when I was 10 years old
Verse 2 (Phil):
Took a turn for the worse in the 60s
Saw some real...
-
A song about looking back at life. The singer is thinking about his childhood in the 1950s and how great it was. He's reminiscing about his childhood joys (Rin Tin Tin, I Love Lucy). Comparing that with the 1960s and the Vietnam war, and the 1980s (present day) and how much more complex things are being a father and provider.
