Help Me Remember

When did it all end Summer time out of school and summer best friends Trying to swim in a creek with water only to your shins Trips on Fridays, the whole family going to the Drive In By eleven us kids asleep at last Boy those times in our child hood were a blast Asking Mom and Dad can a friend spend the night Staying up to tell spooky stories to try to make one another die of fright Breaking out the Monopoly for a marathon While waiting for the original Saturday Night Live to come on Followed by Don Kersinger's Rock Concert Look back and help me remember Making out, puppy love and those heartbreaking times Big back pocket combs and feathered hair looking so fine The clap on clap off seemed so clever The Pacer ended up being a me own one the answer is never The magic of those Christmas cartoons in December Please let me know what you remember A few laughs as I look back Tye Dye Shirts, Kool Aid colored hair and Bell Bottom Slacks Big Wheels and skate boards No helmet or pads were worn Getting cuts and scrapes were part of the fun Always mad when the day is done Waking up early for another adventure I think it feels good for us to remember
