Lyrics
Description
(Verse 1)
The Beatles hit the radio, on a February day
Ed Sullivan was smilin’ as they stole the USA
Ford was rollin’ Mustangs, dancin’ down the line
While folks were marchin’ for their freedom, holdin’ steady through the time
(Chorus)
Back in ’64, the world was spinnin’ fast
Dreams were big, and gas was cheap, and love was built to last
A brand-new breath of history walked through that open door
And me, I took my very first breath in 1964
(Verse 2)
Cassius Clay shook up the world, said “I am the greatest” loud
While satellites were flyin’ high above the cloud
Color TVs came alive, and Motown found its soul
And every jukebox in America had stories to be told
(Chorus)
Back in ’64, when change was on the rise
The world had lines and picket signs, but still looked to the skies
A baby cryin’ in a cradle, dreams not written yet in lore
That baby was me — born free in 1964
(Bridge)
Vinyl on the record player, mama hummin’ along
Sweet sounds of Sam Cooke and that Dylan protest song
The times were surely changin’, you could feel it in your bones
But we held onto each other, and we called this land our own
(Chorus)
Yeah back in ’64, the stars were shinin’ bright
A nation on the tipping edge between the wrong and right
And through the fire and the freedom, we still found things worth dyin’ for
And me—I found my heartbeat in 1964
(Outro)
So raise a glass to memories, to peace, to rock and roll
To love that stood the test of time, and stories yet untold
I came into this world with hope, and maybe just a little roar…
Born proud, born strong… back in 1964
