There's cowboys that still sit with their backs to the wall Does a drifter still hear the high winds when they call Do the hobo's still eat pork and beans in a tin Does a sailor still cast his precious faith to the wind Are the villains in black hats, still I see hero's in white Are the sock hops rocking and rolling Saturday nights Would a forty-nine Mercury would it still be out of sight That was the way it was then Ever night my loving honey I was James Dean Slow walking, soft talking, silently me Surely the rebel and me lives again All for the cause you'll be all caught up in Well it's a quarter till ten honey, ole killer's lying here in bed Spinning those old records memories lingering in my head You know the times were so good I remember songs so sad For the game I used to play it ain't good, it ain't bad There's a woman I remember by the way what was her name We made love, we made love in one hell of a rain Baby ten minutes how time flew back then It will never be that way again Never be that way again Elvis Presley, James Dean, ole rocking Jerry Lee
