Artist/Band: Statler Brothers
Lyrics for Song: Child of the Fifties
Lyrics for Album: Gold [2006]



(written by Don Reid)



I grew up a child of the 50s

Learned to dance to the beat of rock and roll

Television was my friend

I Love Lucy, Rin Tin Tin

Kissed my first girl when I was 10 years old.



Took a turn for the worse in the 60s

Saw some real people die on TV

I learned love's hard cold facts

Paid my first income tax

One small step for the man I'm gonna be.



Chorus:

I'll never feel bad 'bout the times that we had

I'll never look back in regret

The heaven you gave I will treasure and save

'Cause it might be as close as I get.



The 70s were 10 years of reruns

News of Watergate was nothin' new

The Democrats got it, we fell in love again

When Elvis died, we all knew that we could too.



Now I'm facin' the most of the 80s

Old enough to run for President

It's hard to think it's me, the father of three

Oh America, I don't know where it went.



Chorus:

I'll never feel bad 'bout the times that we had

I'll never look back in regret

The heaven you gave I will treasure and save

'Cause it might be as close as I get.



The heaven you gave I will treasure and save

'Cause it might be as close as I get...
