Oh ooh oh

Oh ooh oh

Life was simple

Roger was workin' around the clock to make a living

No computers, none of that

He used his two hands

Ignore the cold war

His wife to keep him warm

On the weekends

He'd love to 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 alot

they layed awake at night, so in love

It was a good good year

The kids were alright

"Highway to Hell", beat out "Staying Alive"

The Clash was on the radio

And mom and dad were still in love in nineteen seventy nine

It was a good good year

In the morning

Robbin 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

The kids were alright

"Highway to Hell", beat out "Staying Alive"

The Clash was on the radio

And mom and dad were still in love in nineteen seventy nine

It was a good good year

All the decades, and the years have passed

Not every family, is good to last

No time can take away these memories

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

The kids were alright

"Highway to Hell", beat out "Staying Alive"

The Clash was on the radio

And mom and dad were still in love in nineteen seventy nine

It was a good good year

Disco couldn't survive

With the 'Dream Police', and rock & roll high

Blondie brought "A Heart of Glass"

And mom and dad bought their first pass in nine-teen seventy nine

It was a good good year

It was a good good year
