It was back in 57,
when the songs came down from heaven
And I look back at the memories of the time in my life
When my mama played the radio in the big red car that we drove
And we sang to every song that they gave me
Now I'm back,
on track,
never turning back
I love the songs of Buddy Holly
I miss Jackie Soon and O'Donoghue Chantilly Lace and the La Bamba
It was back in 57,
when the songs came down from heaven
And I look back at the memories of the time in my life
When my mama played the radio in the big red car that we drove
And we sang to every song that they gave me
Took you to the hop,
the dancing never stopped
I was a teenager in love
We sang every song,
I held it all night long Love me tender was my good luck charm
Remember back in 57,
when the songs came down from heaven
And I look back at the memories of the time in my life
When my mama played the radio in the big red car that
we drove And we sang to every song that they gave me
And now I sit down by the lake and play guitar
I think I hear them every time I see the stars
It was back in 57,
when the songs came down from heaven
And I look back at the memories of the time in my life
When my mama played the radio in the big red car that we drove
And we sang to every song that they gave me
