Come Outside.

There I was

Back in the day,

Back to my early teens.

That song took me there,

A song from so long ago

But I knew all the words.

“Come outside”

There I was waiting

Waiting with Mike,

“Come outside”

But he didn’t want me

He wanted his Little Doll.

 

“ Cause it ain\'t right

to wanna keep on dancin\'

there won\'t be any

time left for romancin’ “

 

The song just took me,

Took me back to those times

Nearly sixty years ago

When I learned the Twist,

Learnt it with Gloria.

Hearing this song

And many more of that era,

I could sing all the words.

And there I was in my car

Driving along to these songs,

Singing my head off

And so full of happiness.

“Come outside”.
