Makin' Thunderbirds Songtext
von Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band

Well, the big line moved one mile an hour
So loud it really hurt
The big line moved so loud it really hurt
Back in ′55, we were makin' Thunderbirds

We filled conveyors, we met production
Foremen didn′t waste words
We met production, foremen didn't waste words
We were young and proud, we were makin' Thunderbirds


Well, we were makin′ Thunderbirds
We were makin′ Thunderbirds
They were long and low and sleek and fast
They were all you ever heard
Back in '55, we were makin′ Thunderbirds

Oh, now the years have flown and the plants have changed
And you're lucky if you work
The big line moves but you′re lucky if you work
Back in '55, we were makin′ Thunderbirds

Well, we were makin' Thunderbirds
We were makin' Thunderbirds
They were long and low and sleek and fast
They were classic in a word
Back in ′55, we were makin′ Thunderbirds


We were young and proud
We were makin' Thunderbirds
We were young and sure
We were makin′ Thunderbirds
