If I had one wish, it would be this
To turn back the years to moments like this.
Elvis and Marilyn were the king and queen.
Who could forget that rebel, James Dean?
Oh, how I wish we could turn back the years to moments like this.
Frankie and Fabian chasing sweet Annette.
What about Kookie, Seven Seven Sunset Strip?
Oh, how I wish we could turn back the years to moments this.
Mr. Dick Clark, he won our hearts with Bandstand ever' Saturday.
And still today just like yesterday, Bandstand is still number one.
Elvis and Marilyn were the king and queen.
Who could forget that rebel, James Dean?
Oh, how I wish we could turn back the years to moments this.
(Spoken)
The 50s it was America's best, from shakin' Elvis to Mr. Pat Boone and his white bucks,
To my friend, Marilyn, who looked good comin' and goin' and she bounced!,
To the greatest actor who ever walked on Planet Earth,
My friend, James Dean, will never, ever be forgotten.
Mr. Dick Clark, he won our hearts with Bandstand ever' Saturday.
And still today just like yesterday, Bandstand is still number one.
Elvis and Marilyn were the king and queen.
Who could forget that rebel, James Dean?
Oh, how I wish we could turn back the years to moments like this.
(Spoken)
The 50s are the best, forget the rest.
