It Was Very Good Year Lyrics - Kingston Trio

Ervin Drake 

 

When I was seventeen, it was a very good year. It was a very good year for small town girls and soft summer nights. 

We'd hide from the light on the village green when I was seventeen. 

 

When I was twenty-one, it was a very good year. It was a very good year for city girls who lived up the stairs 

With perfumed hair that came undone when I was twenty-one. 

 

When I was thirty-five, it was a very good year. It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls of independent means. 

We'd ride in limousines. Their chauffeurs would drive when I was thirty-five.
