They say it came from Berwin - Born in bungalows

We made our bones in basements - Won the Plaza talent show

We harmonized to the Beatles' Tell me why - Invaded with the brits

We rocked 'em at the Sock Hops after friday night games

We pressed up 45's - Though they mispelled our names

It was high-heeled boots and Corduroy suits in the hot July of '66

That when our record hit the charts

We found a map and threw the dart

And when I dream - I'm still nineteen

My feet can dance - My heart has wings

Though the times have changed - The fire remains

We are working the gift we've been given

Just livin' the dream - Still nineteen

Broke down on the shoulder - In one of our greenbriar vans

The first one drove to Green Bay for a night stand

We went on as a trio - Not to let our good fans down

Playing in Daytona with the Allman Joys

Good old Greg and Duane - Those southern boys

We opened up for Zeppelin - As our Vehicle hit #1

I can see it all so clear - As the miles disappear

And when I dream - I'm still nineteen

My feet can dance - My heart has wings

Though the times have changed - The fire remains

We are working the gift we've been given

Just livin' the dream - Still nineteen

Now it's forty-some years since we took to the stage

Spreading our brand of music from an ageless age

And each time I introduce that last song

I look across the crowd and the years are gone

I read in every face the future and the past

And that ever-precious present that we pray is gonna last

And I say 'strap yourself in and hold on tight

This is the Vehicle baby that got us here tonight.

And when we sing - We're still nineteen

Our feet can dance - Our hearts have wings

And through our love - We rise above

Now we pass the baton to our children

Start living your dream - While you're still nineteen
