1979 Lyrics - Cardiology - Good Charlotte

Life was simple, 

Roger was working 'round 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 the 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

It was a good good year 

The kids were alright, 

"Highway to Hell" beat out "Stayin' Alive", 

The Clash was on the radio 

And mum and dad were still in love, 

in 1979. 

It was a good, good year. 

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".

It was a good, good year 

The kids were alright, 

"Highway to Hell" beat out "Stayin' Alive", 

The Clash was on the radio 

And mum and dad were still in love. 

In 1979. 

It was a good, good year. 

All the decades and the years have passed, 

Not every family is built to last, 

No time can take away these memories 

Remember when you said to me 

That we'd be alright. 

Oh oh ohhh 

The kids were alright, 

"Highway to Hell" beat out "Stayin' Alive", 

The Clash was on the radio 

And mum and dad were still in love, 

In 1979 

It was a good, good year. 

Oh oh ohhh 

Disco couldn't survive 

With the Dream Police and Rock N Roll High 

Blondie brought out "Heart Of Glass" 

And mom and dad bought their first house. 

In 1979 

It was a good, good year. 

It was a good, good year.
