1950

real simple: Cm, Em, G7 per line

"1950" bu Kevin McEntire

I'm talkin bout real style
chrome 'n fins at the diner
clean yards lookin fine...a-ah, ohh
a malt and a milkshake to goooooooooooooo!
steamin pies in the window
baseball, friendly hello

ninteen fifty, here we go! a-ah, ohh
ohh, ooo, ohh
wizz-a-wowiee.........it's ninteen fif-ty!!!

feelin' good. wavin' to my neighbor
i just got my yard mowed
did all the edgein'
its looking real real great.
i can't be late
because the anderson's are
visiting for a nice dinner

ninteen fifty, here we go! a-ah, ohh
ohh, ooo, ohh
wizz-a-wowiee.........it's ninteen fif-ty!!!


accross the street lives a man who
is a policeman, fireman, and EMT
while he visitis the firehouse
his children play in my yard
witout supervision, which is
not, not, not how I do things
interupting our lives
and family gatherings
just to go to the firehouse
i would like to tell him
how i really feel
especially since one time
he left the gate open
and my two year old son
was wondering by the sreet


wondering, wondering
wondering by the sreet
just to go to the firehouse
my son was
wondering by the sreet

ninteen fifty, here we go! a-ah, ohh
ohh, ooo, ohh
wizz-a-wowiee.........it's ninteen fif-ty!!!

it's ninteen fif-ty, baby
