remember
when moms were moms and dads were dads
who didn't race their kids to the latest fad
mickey hit homers and sandy threw strikes
and you could walk alone on your streets at night

chorus

Buddy can you bring the fifties back
cause everything here is outa whack
you can bring bobby you can bring jack
but most of all bring your fender strat

no it wasn't perfect
and no it wasn't fair
but no one shot your friends on a stupid dare
a burger was a burger
not a big mac
you could eat two and you never got fat

chorus

Buddy can you bring the fifties back
cause everything here is outa whack
you can bring bobby you can bring jack
but most of all bring your fender strat

no one ever went to a sweaty gym
when cars had fins shaped like rocket ship wings
so when we heard that peggy sue had died
along with your friends back in fifty-nine

we knew right away that things had changed
cause the music you made went straight to our brains
and sure great songs still came along
but you always knew they never were quite the same

"Nothing happens until something moves."

:) That rocks. I couldn't remember how Peggy Sue went but it really works with any 50's rock rhythm shooting around in your head. Great job.
