Kernaghan Lee - 1959 lyrics

rate me

He'd Brycreamed his hair and straightened his tie<br />

When he walked out the dorr he'd kiss his mother goodbye<br />

He's got the keys to his father's FJ<br />

He's taking out Jenny it's their first date<br />

He knocks on her door and he can hear his heart pound<br />

Her father appears and looks him up and down<br />

He said 'Jen won't be long so you'd better come in'<br />

And he waits on the couch, flowers in his hand<br />

CHORUS<br />

There's been so many changes down through the years<br />

There's been so many good things left behind<br />

You can call me sentimental but I really wouldn't mind<br />

If you wrap me up and send me back to 1959<br />

They'd go to a dance JOK would be there<br />

And she'd look so pretty ponytail in her hair<br />

He plucked up the courage to take her hand in his<br />

And there on her doorstep they stole their first kiss<br />

CHORUS<br />

They fell in love and they remember the night<br />

When he nervously asked her would you be my bride<br />

When they made thta promise 'till death do us parth<br />

You know that they meant it straight from the heart<br />

There's been so many changes down through the years<br />

There's been so many good things left behind<br />

You can call me sentimental but I really wouldn't mind<br />

If you wrap me up and send me back to 1959<br />

Wrap me up and send me back to 1959
