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 oh oh)

The kids were alright

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

The kids were alright

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

The kids were alright

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