(Johnny Macrae/Steve Clark)
Remember when pocket change was all we had
And all those calls from the corner phonebooth
Collect to Mom and Dad
And that old worn out couch we called our bed
When our cuisine was pork and beans
Baloney and day old bread
Remember that damn old car that kept breaking down
And all the times it left me stranded
Thumbing all over town
And that old weekly paycheck
Just never stretched enough
Back in the times of nickels and dimes and love
Together we sure made some dreams come true
Sometimes it wasn't easy
But some

Lying still, staring out of the window,
All I can see is doubt.
Watching as tonight moves in.
Watching as the light fades out.
Smokey rooms, minds out of tune.
Lights go down on the time spent with you.
Time moves into place, my memories fade,
Is all I can see so true?
You treat me like a fool.

St'ammore mme teneva 'ncatenato,
Ma ho detto: "Basta!" e mme só' liberato
Mme pare cchiù turchino 'o cielo,

E 'o core canta p''a felicitá!
Chella llá, chella llá
Mo va dicenno ca mme vò' lassá
Se crede ca mme faccio 'o sango amaro,
Se crede ca 'mpazzisco e po' mme sparo!
Chella llá, chella llá
Nun sape che piacere ca mme fa
Mme ne piglio n'ata cchiù bella
E chi sulla restarrá...
Chella llá, chella llá, chella ll

Won't you let me walk you home from school?
Won't you let me meet you at the pool?
Maybe, Friday I can
Get tickets for the dance
And I'll take you.
Ooh-ooh-ooh.
Won't you tell your dad, "Get off my back"?
Tell him what we said 'bout "Paint It, Black".
Rock an' roll is here to stay.
Come inside, now; it's okay.
And I'll shake you.
Ooh-ooh-ooh.
Won't you tell me what you're thinking of?
And would you be an outlaw for my love?
If it's so, then, let me know.
If it's "no", well, I can go.
I won't make you.
Ooh-
