Lyrics
Summer of 79
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
it was the summer of the 70's
and we were running out of gasoline
Jimmy Carter was the president
and we were made to feel like aliens
now it's the summer of the 80's
and you were just a tiny baby
no idea what you're part of
or what the president has started
