When I was young, every song that we sung ,

Just because we're middle aged

When I was seventeen, so they say, it's obscene,
E A
To shake it about like we do (Ooo ooo)

But don't think 'coz we're old, that we can't rock 'n' roll,
E A
'coz we're gonna sock it to you (Oh yeah!)

We can compete with the best,
B7 E E/D E/C# E/B
As long as you give us a rest

everyone tries to forget?
