60 Years Ago

I went back home, things were not the same You can't cross the street at portage and main Those crossroads where the winds would blow Was Canada's home of rock and roll Me and Burton, Turner and Neil But guess who overdrived from Buffalo, Springfield Teenage dreams of rock and roll We never thought we'd get this old Sixty years ago So dammed cold and so much snow Sixty years ago We're stayed inside, we rocked and rolled Livi'n on the road and never gettin' back home Breaks you down, kills your heart and soul When 1970 was over and done, American woman was number one Back to the prairie town fightin' to survive Got me and Turner into Overdrive Only one thing left was on my mind There's always one more mountain to climb Sixty years ago Summers were hot, most winters were cold Sixty years ago So good, it never got old So dammed cold and so much snow We stayed inside, we rocked and rolled Sixty years ago Oh, I'm learning to play rock and roll So many stories that seem unreal So many heartaches that just won't heal So many lessons of what went wrong And the road of life goes on He's still rockin after all these years My heated my soul and cried away my tears And looking back at that prairie town It sure look different now, than Sixty years ago Played around town and set the goal Sixty years ago Oh, I'm learning to play rock and roll So dammed cold and so much snow We stayed inside and rocked and rolled Sixty years ago Oh, yeah You stayed inside and rocked and rolled Sixty years ago
