[Verse] SixtySix was still a narrow twolane highway Harry Truman was the man who ran the show The bad Korean war was just beginning And I was just three years too young to go Country music hadnt gone to New York City yet And a service man was proud of what hed done And Hank and Lefty crowded every jukebox Thats the way it was in 51 [Chorus] [x2] Theres so much about the good old days Id love to tell And theres folks around I know, still remember well Slow dancing close together when a ballad played Cause a thing called, Rock and Roll was yet to come It was a big year for a drivein restaurant, Carhop And thats the way it was in 51 [Outro] Hank and Lefty crowded every jukebox Oh Lord, thats the way it was in 51
