Good Charlotte - 1979 (LYRICS)

Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
Life was simple,
Roger was working round the clock to make a living
No computers, none of that
He used his two hands
Ignore the cold war
His wife would keep him warm

On the weekends,
He'd load the car up with the kids and they'd go fishing
No need to work an extra job, there's no recession
Damn right he smiled a lot
They'd lay awake at night
So in love

It was a good good year (oh oh oh)
The kids were alright
"Highway To Hell", beat up, "Staying alive" (oh oh oh)
The Clash was on the radio
And Mom and Dad were still in love in 1979
It was a good good year

In the morning,
Robin always woke up early in the kitchen,
She'd make the coffee, pack his lunch and then she'd kiss him
And he would hold her tight
When they were newlyweds
He'd say maybe
And she would laugh, they knew they'd have another baby
She'd slave away all day until dinner was ready,
And they would dance so slow to "Just the Way You Are".

It was a good good year (oh oh oh)
The kids were alright
"Highway To Hell", beat up, "Staying alive" (oh oh oh)
The Clash was on the radio
And Mom and Dad were still in love in 1979
It was a good good year

All the decades and the years have passed
Not every family is built to last
No time can take away these memories
Remember when you said to me that we'd be alright

oh oh oh
The kids were alright
"Highway To Hell", beat up, "Staying alive" (oh oh oh)
The Clash was on the radio
And Mom and Dad were still in love in 1979
It was a good good year

Oh oh oh
Disco couldn't survive
With the Dream Police and Rock N Roll High (Oh oh oh)
Blondie put out "Heart Of Glass"
And mom and dad bought their first house
In 1979
It was a good, good year
It was a good, good year.
