Do You Remember These
(A pictorial version of the lyrics below)

-------------------------------------------------

Saturday morning serials chapters 1 through 15
Fly paper penny loafers Lucky Strike Green
Flat tops sock hops Studebaker Pepsi please
Ah do you remember these

Cigar bands on your hand your daddy's socks rolled down
Sticks snow floats and aviator caps with flaps that button down
Movie stars on Dixie Cup tops and knickers to your knees
Ah do you remember these

The hit parade grape Tru-Aid The Sadie Hawkins Dance
Pedal pushers duck tail hair and peggin' your pants
Howdie-Doodie Tutti-Frutti the seam up the back of her hose
Ah do you remember those

James Dean he was keen Sunday movies were taboo
The Senior Prom Judy's mom rock and roll was new
Cracker Jack prize stars in your eyes as daddy tore the keys
Ah do you remember these

The boogey man lemonade stand and takin' your tonsils out
Hindenburg and wait your turn and four foul balls you're out
Cigarette loads and secret codes and savin' lucky stars
Can you remember back that far

The boat neck shirts and fender skirts and crinoline petticoats
Mum's the word and a dirty bird and a double root beer float
Moon hub caps and loud heel taps and he's a real gone cat
Ah do you remember that

Dancin' close little moron jokes and cooties in her hair
Captain Midnight Ovaltine and The Whip at the County Fair
Charles Atlas Course Roy Roger's Horse and only The Shadow knows
Ah do you remember those

Gable's charm Frog in your arm loud mufflers pitchin' woo
Going steady Veronica and Betty white bucks and Blue Suede Shoes
Knock Knock jokes and who's there Dewey Dewey who
Do we remember these yes we do ah do we do we remember these.

"Remember when" . . . they waited until after the polls closed to declare which candidate had won a state's electoral votes (or any other voting results for that matter)?

I am so irritated with the media having reached the point where they honestly think they can tell us what we are going to do on Tuesday before it's even happened. And then they wonder why people think "why should I even bother?" and why we have such low voting turn outs.

yes they do..they are called candy sticks now..cigarettes were no long the proper word for it..they also don't have the red end like they use too. I just bought a bag with a bunch of packages (2 in each) from the after halloween discounts. Some of the packages have Simpson characters on them and other have Flinstones (which my kids have no idea who they are)

Does anybody remember Speedy Gonzales? The cartoon character was one of my favorites, and I enjoyed watching him try to outsmart Sylvester to get the cheese. It was discontinued because the network feared it would offend the Hispanic communities.

Don't you remember
The fizz in a pepper
Peanuts in a bottle
At ten, two and four
A fried bologna sandwich
With mayo and tomato
Sittin' round the table
Don't happen much anymore

We got too complicated
It's all way over-rated
I like the old and out-dated
Way of life

Back when a hoe was a hoe
Coke was a coke
And crack's what you were doing
When you were cracking jokes
Back when a screw was a screw
The wind was all that blew
And when you said I'm down with that
Well it meant you had the flu
I miss back when
I miss back when
I miss back when

I love my records
Black, shiny vinyl
Clicks and pops
And white noise
Man they sounded fine
I had my favorite stations
The ones that played them all
Country, soul and rock-and-roll
What happened to those times?

I'm readin' Street Slang For Dummies
Cause they put pop in my country
I want more for my money
The way it was back then

Back when a hoe was a hoe
Coke was a coke
And crack's what you were doing
When you were cracking jokes
Back when a screw was a screw
The wind was all that blew
And when you said I'm down with that
Well it meant you had the flu
I miss back when
I miss back when
I miss back when

Give me a flat top for strumming
I want the whole world to be humming
Just keep it coming
The way it was back then

Back when a hoe was a hoe
Coke was a coke
And crack's what you were doing
When you were cracking jokes
Back when a screw was a screw
The wind was all that blew
And when you said I'm down with that
Well it meant you had the flu
I miss back when
I miss back when
I miss back when

I remember the Christmas when I got my first transistor radio (with a leather outer casing and an ear piece!) and thought I had died and gone to heaven. I could listen to "my music" anytime I wanted.

Remember when you trembled from the excitement of Christmas and not from the stress.
Remember the smells of Christmas dinner and how long it seemed to take untile it was ready and not how short the time was to get it ready.
Remember how fun it was to see all your cousins and how much fun you had with them all and hating to see them go and not how nice it is to see all your nephews and nieces and holding your breath til they finally go home.

Remember how long it took for Christmas eve to get here and not the panic of how few days you have to get ready.

Pretty hard to tell that I love Christmas right now.

It's seems like one year I had all this excitement for Christmas, but I just couldn't get into the next. Like I had lost the Christmas spirit all of the sudden. I want it back. I love this time of year. I think it was just a transitional phase between girlhood and adulthood. Now that I have a dd, maybe I'll get it back.
