Well I was born back in '59

I didn't come late I was right on time

We had a '59 Ford That never ran quite right

We'd catch a drive-in movie Every Saturday night

Well times were hard for the working man Daddy tried to understand

Everything I love is from '59

My first guitar and that girl of mine

Everything I want is from '59

I guess I'm behind the times

'Cause everything I love's from '59

Well the prince said hey Grace Kelly Would you be my wife?

And Bobby Darin sang "Mack The Knife"

They took Eddie Cochran what could we do

Once he was gone we knew that rock and roll was through

We had Technicolor at the scene of the crime Coupe DeVilles rolling off of the line

Everything I love is from '59

My first guitar and that girl of mine

Everything I want is from '59

I guess I'm behind the times

'Cause everything I love's from '59

Everything I love

Everything I love

Everything I love

Everything

Wonder where as time rolls on

All that stile from 1959 has gone

But I've got memories in the back of my mind

What I was like to be alive in '59

We had Technicolor at the scene of the crime Coupe DeVilles rolling off the line

Everything I love is from '59

My first guitar and that girl of mine

Everything I want is from '59

I guess I'm behind the times

Everything I love is from '59

My first guitar and that girl of mine

Everything I want is from '59

I guess I'm behind the times

'Cause everything I love

Everything I love

Everything I love's from '59
