Story Behind the Song
I think Chuck got burnt out on a lot of the music coming out in the '70s, '80s, and '90s and wanted to pay a tribute to the importance of how cool the '60s really were
Lyrics
Give me the 60's Again
(Neus)
Even though I am older at this age again I am bolder.
But I'm stuck in the '60s, and the '90s they can't fix me.
Yes, even though I am here, to the '60s I'll disappear.
Freedom marches, Protest songs, trying to right what is wrong.
'70s were a drag, and the '80s were the same,
in the '90s we're still stuck.
Give me the '60s again, give me the '60s again.
What happened to Bob Dylan, where can Joan Baez be?
Maybe we all stopped listening, now their just letting be.
We need John Lennon, but now he's
here, there and everywhere.
What happened to the beat goes on?
Promise by Sonny and Cher?
70's were a drag, and the '80s were the same,
in the '90s we're still stuck.
Give me the '60s again, give me the '60s again.
Once had a road to Camelot, but its been lost in time.
Even though now we're stuck, that road we can still find.
Road to Camelot, Road to Camelot.
Woodstock, Jimi Hendrix, Richy Haven, Janis Joplin,
White Album, Sgt. Pepper, Yoko Ono, Give
Peace a Chance, Martin Luther King, The Kennedys,
Peace sign, Flower Children, Smother's Brothers,
Rolling Stones, on the eve of destruction.
Give me the '60s again.
'70s were a drag, and the '80s were the same,
in the '90s we're still stuck.
Give me the '60s again, give me the '60s again.
