1979

Good Charlotte - 1979

.

Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh

Life was simple,

Roger was working round the clock to make a living

No computers, none of that

He used his two hands

Ignore the cold war

His wife would keep him warm

.

On the weekends,

He''d load the car up with the kids and they''d go fishing

No need to work an extra job, there''s no recession

Damn right he smiled a lot

They lay awake at night so in love

.

It was a good good year oh

The kids were alright

"Highway To Hell", beat up, "Staying alive" oh

The Clash was on the radio

And Mom and Dad were still in love in 1979

It was a good good year

.

In the morning,

Robyn always woke up early in the kitchen

She''d make the coffee, pack his lunch, and then she''d kiss him

And he would hold her tight,

When they were newly weds

.

He''d say maybe,

And she would laugh they knew they''d have another baby

She''d slave away all day until dinner was ready

And they would dance so slow,

To just the way you are

.

It was a good good year oh

The kids were alright

"Highway To Hell", beat up, "Staying alive" oh

The Clash was on the radio

And Mom and Dad were still in love in 1979

It was a good good year

.

All the decades and the years have passed

Not every family is built to last

No time can take away these memories

Remember when you said to me that we''d be alright

.

It was a good good year oh

The kids were alright

"Highway To Hell", beat up, "Staying alive" oh

The Clash was on the radio

And Mom and Dad were still in love in 1979

It was a good good year

.

Oh oh oh

Disco couldn''t survive

With the dream police,

And Rock ''N Roll high oh

Blondie brought "A Heart of Glass"

And Mom and Dad bought their first house in 1979

It was a good good year

It was a good good year
