Merle Haggard - The Way It Was In '51 Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Sixty-Six was still a narrow two-lane highway
  • Harry Truman was the man who ran the show
  • The bad Korean was was just begining
  • And I was just three years too young to go
  • Country Music hadn't gone to New York City yet
  • And a service man was proud of what he'd done
  • Hank and Lefty crowded ev'ry jukebox
  • That's the way it was in fifty one.
  • There's so much about the good old days I'd love to tell
  • And there's folks around I know still remember well
  • Slow dancin' close together when a ballad played
  • 'Cause a thing called Rock and Roll was yet to come
  • It was a big year for a drive-in rest'rant carhop
  • That's the way it was in fifty one.
  • There's so much about the good old days I'd love to tell
  • And there's folks around I know still remember well
  • Slow dancin' close together when a ballad played
  • 'Cause a thing called Rock and Roll was yet to come
  • It was a big year for a drive-in rest'rant carhop
  • That's the way it was in fifty one.
  • Yeah! Hank and Lefty crowded ev'ry jukebox
  • Oh Lord That's the way it was in fifty one
