Generation Away Songtext
von Lady A

If I was the summer, I wanna be ′69
I'd be chilling, listening to Dylan, holding up a peace sign
And if I was a prison, I wanna be Folsom
Johnny Cash be rocking that black
Singing to the stripes, and kicking out all the lights

Hey, what can I say?
I hope they′d talk about us that way
There ain't no place I'd rather be
Than right here making history
Hey, what can we do?
Here we are, it′s me and you
So let′s take all the pictures we can take
For the generation away
Come on!


Well, if I was an old car, I wanna be a Mustang
American made with a white rag top
On a blue sky kind of day
And if I was a preacher, I wanna be Dr. King
Oh, I know he's up there smiling down
′Cause we all still have a dream

Hey, what can I say?
I hope they'd talk about us that way
There ain′t no place I'd rather be
Than right here making history
Hey, what can we do?
Here we are, it′s me and you
So let's take all the pictures we can take
For the generation away

Let's make some memories while we can
Laugh and love, don′t miss your chance
′Cause he's still got the whole world in his hands
So baby let′s dance


Yeah, I'm singing
Hey, what can I say?
I hope they talk about us that way
Raise your voice and have no fear
Let ′em know that you were here
Singing hey, what can we do?
Here we are, it's me and you
So let′s take all the pictures we can take
And let's make all the memories we can make
For the generation away

He's got the whole world in his hands
He′s got the whole world in his hands
He′s got the whole wide world right in his hands
So come on now, everybody just dance

He's got the whole world in his hands
He′s got the whole world in his hands
He's got the whole wide world right in his hands
So sing out loud and wave your hands

Got the whole world
Got the whole wide world
The whole wide world, oh yeah
Now everybody in the party
Everybody in the place
Come on and put your hands up
Come on and put your hands up

Oh no, oh, oh, yeah
If you feel good, oh
If you feel good
Then sing it out loud
Sing it out loud
