Lyrics
Back in the '50's

Intro-Sha na na na na / be bop a dooby do / Sha na na na na / be bop a dooby do
Would you like to go back in time / I wonder what you'd find / I listen to Grandpa and it sounds so nice, / sez(says) he'd go back in a minute, wouldn't think twice.
Says... I'd go back to the fifties, boys in penny loafer shoes / girls with ponytails a swingin' to the 'be bop, be bop a dooby do'. / By day, be doin' some laid back strollin', / and by night - sock hop - really, really rock n' rollin' / Oh good golly it would be cool really to be back...back in the fifties.
It would be so fine to be back in the fifties, / an easy goin' time, the way life should be. / Goin' to the drive-in for a burger, fries, and shake, / delivered to your car by a girl on roller skates.
I'd go back to the fifties, boys in penny loafer shoes / girls with ponytails a swingin' to the 'be bop, be bop a dooby do'. / By day, be doin' some laid back strollin', / and by night - sock hop - really, really rock n' rollin' / Oh good golly it would be cool really, to be back...back in the fifties.
Music Break...Sha na na na na / be bop a dooby do / Sha na na na na / be bop a dooby do /Sha na na na na / be bop a dooby do
In my 55 T-bird, and slicked back 'do, / Grandma right beside me in her new saddle shoes / The radio playin' our favorite tunes...... a little 'Sha na na na', and that 'be bop a dooby do'
I'd go back to the fifties, boys in penny loafer shoes / girls with ponytails a swingin' to the 'be bop, be bop a dooby do'. / By day, be doin' some laid back strollin', / and by night - sock hop - really, really rock n' rollin' / you know I'd give anything, really... to be back...back in the fifties.
Sha na na na na / be bop a dooby do / Sha na na na na / be bop a dooby do /Sha na na na na / be bop a dooby do
