1979 Good Charlotte

[Verse 1]
Life was simple
Roger was working around the clock to make a living
No computers, none of that; he used his two hands
Ignored the cold war, his wife would keep him warm
On the weekends
He'd load the car up with his 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

[Chorus]
It was a good good year
The kids were alright
"Highway to Hell" beat up "Staying Alive"
The Clash was on the radio
And mom and dad were still in love in 1979
It was a good good year

[Verse 2]
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"
