1976

Rocky burned up the movie screen When I was turning seventeen Tie-dyed shirts and Levi jeans Looking cool at the Dairy Queen Trying to impress a young woman in her Sunday dress That was 1976, didn't know who I was yet A pretty little blonde-haired girl Stole my heart and changed my world Two kids and a moonlit sky A little love on a Friday night Built a fire that just won't quit And that was 1976 My high-school days are packed away Set my sights on a bigger stage Jimmy Carter moved to D.C. A Georgia boy just like me Life seemed easy Nothing much that we needed That was 1976, didn't know who I was yet A pretty little blonde-haired girl Stole my heart and changed my world Two kids and a moonlit sky A little love on a Friday night Built a fire that just won't quit And that was 1976 Eight-track tapes were still in style And Elvis was still alive Wonder Woman sure looked fine Bionic Man was still prime time And that girl I liked We kept on trying 'til we got it right That was 1976, didn't know who I was yet A pretty little blonde-haired girl Stole my heart and changed my world Two kids and a moonlit sky A little love on a Friday night Built a fire that just won't quit And that was 1976 Yeah, that was 1976, didn't know who we were yet Built a fire that just won't quit That was 1976 We built a fire that just won't quit That was 1976
