Lyrics

1969

[Chorus]

Well, it's 1969, OK?

All across the USA

It's another year for me and you

Another year with nothin' to do

(Another year for me and you)

(Another year of nothin' to do)

[Verse]

Well, last year, I was 21

Didn't have a lot of fun

Now I'm gonna 22

I say, "Oh my" and a "Boohoo"

Yeah

Said, now I'm gonna be 22

"Oh my" and a "Boohoo"

[Chorus]

Well, it's 1969, OK?

All across the USA

It's another year for me and you

Another year with nothin' to do

[Post-Chorus]

1969, baby

All across the UK (1969, baby)

I'm gonna be 22 (1969, baby)

Another year with nothin' to do (1969, baby)

And it's 2009, OK (1969, baby)

All across the UK, ah (1969, baby)

Well, it's 1969, OK (1969, baby)
