| [00:00.00] |
With 75 Septembers come and gone |
| [00:23.13] |
In the year of the yellow cab |
| [00:27.24] |
In the shadow of the great world war |
| [00:30.92] |
The third kid grandmom had |
| [00:34.91] |
Came into this world |
| [00:38.42] |
On a rolling farm in Maryland |
| [00:42.60] |
When Wilson was the President |
| [00:46.47] |
And summer blew her goodbye through the trees |
| [00:53.15] |
|
| [00:54.33] |
A child of changing times |
| [00:57.89] |
Growing up between the wars |
| [01:01.95] |
The Fords rolled off the line |
| [01:05.84] |
And bars all closed their doors |
| [01:09.77] |
And I imagine you back then |
| [01:13.64] |
With snap brim hat and farmer's tan |
| [01:17.63] |
Where horses drew their wagons through the fields |
| [01:25.18] |
Now the fields are all four lanes |
| [01:28.92] |
And the moon's not just a name |
| [01:32.72] |
Are you more amazed at how things change |
| [01:37.40] |
Or how they stay the same |
| [01:39.85] |
And do you sit here on this porch and wonder |
| [01:44.67] |
How the time flies by |
| [01:48.12] |
Or does it seem to barely creep along |
| [01:55.98] |
With 75 Septembers come and gone |
| [02:05.15] |
|
| [02:15.26] |
Were the fields all gold and fawn |
| [02:18.50] |
Was the spring house dark and cool |
| [02:22.12] |
Did the rooster crow at dawn |
| [02:26.11] |
When they got you up for school |
| [02:29.98] |
And would you tell me once again |
| [02:34.09] |
The tales of granddad's hired men |
| [02:38.03] |
And how they drove the old road to town |
| [02:45.46] |
Now the fields are all four lanes |
| [02:49.42] |
And the moon's not just a name |
| [02:53.16] |
Are you more amazed at how things change |
| [02:57.90] |
Or how they stay the same |
| [03:00.40] |
And do you sit here on this porch and wonder |
| [03:05.08] |
How the time flies by |
| [03:08.85] |
Or does it seem to barely creep along |
| [03:16.83] |
With 75 Septembers come and gone |
