Mark Wills - 19 Somethin' Lyrics

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, yeah

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 mama cried

It was 1970 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'
Oh, it was 1970 somethin'

It was the dawning of a new decade
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 1980 somethin'
In the world that I grew up in
Skatin' rinks and black Trans Ams
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'
Oh, it was 1980 somethin'

Now I've got a mortgage and an SUV
And all this responsibility
Makes me wish (wish) sometimes (sometimes)

It was 1980 somethin'
In the world that I grew up in
Skatin' rinks and black Trans Ams
Big hair and parachute pants
Lookin' back now I can see me
And oh man, did I look cheesy
I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
Oh, it was 1980 somethin'

1970 somethin'
Ah, it was 19 somethin'
