You Had To Be There

One voice trying to be heard

Round pegs living in a square world

We were strangers in a strange land

Always reaching for the upper hand

We were hard to understand

It was juvenile

It was something wild

Part of every child

Yeah, you had to be there

Rough and tough

It was peace and love

All of the above

Yeah, you had to be there

Outcasts, misfits, they're so full of it

Don't tell me it's something that you never did

You were strangers in a strange land

Always reaching for the upper hand

You were hard to understand

It was juvenile

It was something wild

Part of every child

Yeah, you had to be there

Rough and tough

It was peace and love

All of the above

Yeah, you had to be there

You had to be there

You had to be there

You had to be there

You had to be there

It was juvenile

It was something wild

Part of every child

Yeah, you had to be there

Rough and tough

It was peace and love

All of the above

Yeah, you had to be there

Juvenile

It was something wild

Part of every child

Yeah, you had to be there

Rough and tough

It was peace and love

All of the above

Yeah, you had to be there
