John Anderson - 1959 (1981)

Cigarettes were a quarter then, bobby socks and jeans were in
Elvis sang the songs that we loved so
And the most important thing to us was keeping gas in my old truck
So I could take us to the drive in show

Then graduation finally came, Uncle Sam called me away
You married someone else while I was gone
But I've kept your letter all these years, and I can't help but shed a tear
When I read the words you wrote me years ago

Baby I'm yours, I'll love you always
I'm gonna stand by you until the end of time
Remember all of the good things that we shared together
Signed, love Betty, nineteen fifty nine
I never will forget the day, when you and I went all the way
I was the first for you, and you for me
I've still got the truck that we loved in it takes me back there now and then
Back to fifty nine in my memory

Baby I'm yours, I'll love you always
I'm gonna stand by you until the end of time
Remember all of the good things that we shared together
Signed, love Betty, nineteen fifty nine
