It's Been a Long Time Since I Was Twenty One
It’s been a long time since I was twenty one

It’s been a long time since I was twenty one
And all of my peace signs
and bell bottoms are gone
But I still listen to Crosby Still’s and Nash and Young
And the Allman brothers band and Stevie Ray Vaughn
Just like I had done way back then
Its just hard to believe
that
all those days are gone
But I would do anything to
turn back the hands of time
So that I could go back to the
summer of nineteen sixty nine
A year before I had turned thirteen
So that I could
have the opportunity
to live through
those days once again
Because the days were
filled with peace signs
and love from everyone
But after the war ended in Vietnam
Nothing would ever be the same
But I cant turn back the hands of time
So for the time being I
will just keep on moving on
While I reminisce down memory lane
