The Everly Brothers - The Fall Of '59

 

I was one among the many
Who still hadn?t gotten any
In the senior class of ?59
Life?s sweet mystery
Was a fantasy to me
The reality was bound to come in time
I hung out at the drug store
And the waitress that I?d go for
Got all her clothes from Frederick?s of Hollywood
I stirred my Coco Cola
And sit and stare at Lola
?Cause she could move a special way and would345
In the fall of ?59
Such a shame those yesterdays are gone
In the Fall of ?59
I could rock ?n? roll all night long
We?d pull into The Starlight
And watch the movies all night
The three of us would share a can of beer
Then I?d burn out on that highway
And floor my 40 Ford
Scared to death but I claimed I didn?t hear
Those were the happy days
Better in so many ways
When life was just an easy ride for me
That summer ?n? fall of ?59
When I didn?t read between the lines
Innocent enough to still believe
In the fall of ?59
Such a shame those yesterdays are gone
In the Fall of ?59
I could rock ?n? roll all night long
All night long!
