Back In '79 |
Just like we had ffffeared, the mates we had have all dissapeared |
Nicky, Flip, Paul, Fat Bob and Ted, they all done a bunk & all got wed |
OUT WITH THE LADS FOR A LAUGH AND A BEER, THOSE DAYS ARE NO LONGER 'ERE |
WITH A LUMP IN YER THROAT & A SHIVER DOWN YER SPINE |
THEY’RE THE MEMORIES OF 1979 |
(Chorus:) |
WOOOOOOOOOOO THAT’S WHERE WE WANNA BE |
WOOOOOOOOOOO THAT’S WHERE WE WANNA BE |
BACK IN '79 |
Flip a punk sssuddenly aged, he sold his leather jacket just to get engaged |
Bobby was a skinhead, but Bobby’s hair grew, all for a bird who made him bbblue |
WE NEVER THOUGHT WE’DE SEE THE DAY, TEDDY WITH A MRS IN THE FAMILY WAY |
OH WHAT WENT WRONG? |
THINGS WERE JUST FINE, |
SO TAKE ME BACK TO 1979 |
(Chorus)… |
(Guitar Bit) |
Freddie was a free bloke fffull o' life, now Freddie is a bag o' misery with a |
wife |
Everynight George hit the town, by 8'o clock now he’s in his dressing gown |
THEY AIN’T THE LADS WE KNEW BEFORE, YOU DON’T SEE THEM DOWN THE PUB NO MORE |
THEY’RE DISCONTENTED MATES O' MINE WHO WANNA BE BACK IN 1979. |
