19 Somethin' Lyrics - Mark Wills

I saw Star Wars at least eight times 

Had the Pac Man pattern memorized 

And I've seen the stuff they put inside 

Stretch Armstrong 

I was Roger Staubach in my back yard 

Had a shoe box full of baseball cards 

And a couple of Evel Knievel scars 

On my right arm 

I was a kid when Elvis died 

And my momma cried 

It was nineteen seventy somethin' 

In the world that I grew up in 

Farrah Fawcett harido days 

Bell bottoms and eight tracks tapes 

Lookin' back now I can see me 

And oh man did I look cheesy 

But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin' 

Nineteen seventy somethin' 

It was the dawning of a new decade 

When we got our first microwave 

And Dad broke down and finally shaved 

Them old sideburns off 

I took the stickers off of my Rubik's Cube 

Watched MTV all afternoon 

And my first love was Daisy Duke 

In them cut off jeans 

A space shuttle fell out of the sky 

And the whole world cried 

It was nineteen eighty somethin' 

In the world that I grew up in 

Skatin' rinks and black Trans Am's 

Big hair and parachute pants 

Lookin' back now I can see me 

And oh man did I look cheesy 

But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin' 

Nineteen eighty somethin' 

Now I've got a mortgage and an S.U.V. 

And all this responsibility 

Makes me wish sometimes 

It was nineteen seventy somethin' 

In the world that I grew up in 

Farrah Fawcett harido days 

Bell bottoms and eight tracks tapes 

Lookin' back now I can see me 

And oh man did I look cheesy 

But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin' 

Nineteen seventy somethin' 

Oh was it eighty somethin' 

It was nineteen somethin'
