19 Somethin' (Greatest Hits Version) - Mark Wills

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 backyard

Had a shoebox full of baseball cards

And a couple of Evil Knievel scars

On my right arm

I was a kid when Elvis died

And my momma cried

It was nineteen seventy somethin'

And the world that I grew up in

Farrah Fawcett hairdo days

Bell bottoms and eight track tapes

Lookin' back now I can see me

Oh man did I look cheesy

But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'

Oh it was nineteen seventy-somethin'

It was the dawning of a new decade

We got our first microwave

Dad broke down and

Finally shaved them old sideburns off

I took the stickers off of my Rubik's Cube

Watched M-TV all afternoon

My first love was Daisy Duke

And them cut-off jeans

Space Shuttle fell out of the sky

And the whole world cried

It was nineteen eighty-somethin'

And the world that I grew up in

Skatin' rinks and black Trans-Ams

Big hair and parachute pants

And lookin' back now I can see me

Oh man did I look cheesy

I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'

Oh it was nineteen eighty-somethin'

Now I've got a mortgage and an SUV

But all this responsibility

Makes me wish

Sometimes

That it was nineteen eighty-something

And the world that I grew up in

Skatin' rinks and black Trans-Ams

Big hair and parachute pants

And lookin' back now I can see me

Oh man did I look cheesy

I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'

Oh it was nineteen eighty-something

Nineteen seventy-something

Oh it was nineteen somethin'
