Class of '57 Songtext
von Dailey & Vincent

Tommy's selling used cars, Nancy's fixin' hair
Harvey runs a grocery store and Margaret doesn't care
Jerry drives a truck for Sears and Charlotte's on the make
And Paul sells life insurance and part-time real estate
Helen is a hostess, Frank works at the mill
Janet teaches grade school and probably always will
Bob works for the city and Jack's in lab research
And Peggy plays the organ at the Presbyterian Church
And the class of '57 had its dreams
We all thought we'd change the world with our great works and deeds
Or maybe we just thought the world would change to fit our needs
The class of '57 had its dreams
Betty runs a trailer park, Jan sells Tupperware Randy's on an insane ward, Mary's on welfare
Charlie took a job with Ford, Joe took Freddie's wife
Charlotte took a millionaire, and Freddie took his life
John is big in cattle, Ray is deep in debt,
Where Mavis finally wound up is anybody's bet
Linda married Sonny, Brenda married me
And the class of all of us is just a part of history
And the class of '57 had its dreams
But living life from day to day is never like it seems
Things get complicated when you get past eighteen
The class of '57 had its dreams
Oh, the class of '57 had its dreams
