The

Wow man, the 50's! They really were 'neat.'
Bobby socks, saddle shoes, poodle skirts, oh so sweet.
Penny loafers and 'Sock Hops,' the Jitterbug...our beat.

Varsity sweaters with 'letters' you'd earn,
and that '55 Chevy...the rubber she'd 'burn.'

'Cool' leather jackets and pants that were pegged,
heavy greased 'ducktails.' Our parents felt plagued!

A brightly lit 'jukebox'...maybe "Heartbreak Hotel,"
the 'King,' Elvis Presley...Gee he was 'swell.'

The Platters, the Chordettes; how they could sing,
and we'd 'hit the dance floor.' Boy, could we 'swing'!

Yes, the fun of the 50's when cares were so few,
'Soda-Fountains' and girls with a 'Pageboy' hair-do.

Now when the 50's are mentioned, I smile,
'cause it's my age they're referring to all of the while!
