Sixty-six was still a narrow two-lane highway.
Harry Truman was the man who ran the show.
The bad Korean war was just beginning.
And I was just three years too young to go.

Country Music hadn't gone to New York City yet
and a service man was proud of what he'd done.
Hank and Lefty crowded every jukebox.
That's the way it was in fifty one.

There's so much about the good old days I'd love to tell
and there's folks around I know still remember well.
Slow dancing close together when a ballad played
'cause a thing called Rock and Roll was yet to come.

It was a big year for a drive-in restaurant car hop
That's the way it was in fifty one.

Yeah! Hank and Lefty crowded every jukebox
That's the way it was in fifty one.
