They came this mornin` with a dog on a chain
They came and took my little brother away
His generation never even got a name
My momma was a rocker way back in `53
Buys them old records that they sell on T.V.
I know Chuck Berry wasn`t singin` that to me
Chorus
Momma,
That`s all right, it`s your world
Hey this is my life
She`s my girl
My life/your world
I watch that fortune wheel
But never get to spin it
You made me promises, I don`t think you meant it
If there`s some sunshine baby
I`m gonna get out in it - oh yeah
(Repeat Chorus)
I tried to leave, but the traffic had been stopped
The beach was burnin`, and someone was
Throwin` rocks -
They said an airplane had
Fallen on my block
(Repeat Chorus)
