Lyrics The Rubettes

The Rubettes

Way Back In The Fifties

Way back in the fifties man when I was in my teens

Watching all those movie stars upon the silver screens

Playing at rock and roll that music moved my very soul

I swear that's where I am way back in the fifties man

In my mind I walk into that coffe bar

Playing with the keys of my new car

I stare across at the girl in the tight blue jeans

And we'd go for a ride in my machine

Way back in the fifties man when I was in my teens

Watching all those movie stars upon the silver screens

Playing at rock and roll that music moved my very soul

I swear that's where I am way back in the fifties man

In the mirror strumming chards on my guitar

Wondering why I never was a star

Then I'd have to stop a while to comb my hair

Just the time for practising my stare

Way back in the fifties man when I was in my teens

Watching all those movie stars upon the silver screens

Playing at rock and roll that music moved my very soul

I swear that's where I am way back in the fifties man
