Where were you in sixty-eight
|
In sixty-eight Julie was Johnnie's date
|
Two kids growin' together
|
Livin' each day as if time was slippin' away
|
Oh, they were just sixteen
|
And their love a teenage dream
|
They passed the time, they crossed the line
|
The line that ran between
|
Julie and Johnnie now you've made it
|
|
But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
|
You've just gotta be strong
|
If you're one of the sixteens
|
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
|
You know you'll never go wrong
|
'Cause you're all part of the sixteens
|
|
Suzie and Davey got to make the big time
|
Maybe they can put it all together
|
In a show that lasts forever
|
Oh they would walk the strip at nights
|
And dream they saw their name in lights
|
On Desolation boulevard
|
They'll light the faded light
|
Suzie and Davey you can make it
|
|
But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
|
You've just gotta be strong
|
If you're one of the sixteens
|
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
|
You know you'll never go wrong
|
'Cause you're all part of the sixteens
|
|
So where were you in sixty-eight
|
When Bobby and Billy thought
|
That sixty eight was out of date
|
They took the flowers from their hair
|
And tried to make us all aware
|
Too bad, too late
|
So they lived from day to day
|
And tried to do it all their way
|
But sixty-eight was sixty-eight
|
No matter what they say
|
Bobby and Billy maybe you'll make it one day...
