Dolbro Dan - Back In The 1960s [Incredible String Band]

ORIGINALLY FROM THE SEMINAL ALBUM: 5000 Layers Or The Layers Of The Onion.

Lyricz =
I was a young man back in the 1960s.
Yes, you made your own amusements then,
For going to the pictures;
Well, the travel was hard, and I mean
We still used the wheel.
But you could sit down at your table
And eat a real food meal.

But hey, you young people, well I just do not know,
And I can't even understand you
When you try to talk slow.

There was one fellow singing in those days,
And he was quite good, and I mean to say that
His name was Bob Dylan, and I used to do gigs too
Before I made my first million.
That was way, way back before,
before wild World War Three,
When England went missing,
And we moved to Paraguayee.

But I hate you young people, I just do not know,
And I can't even understand you
When you try to talk slow.

Well, I got a secret, and don't give us away.
I got some real food tins for my 91st birthday,
And your grandmother bought them
Way down in the new antique food store,
And for beans and for bacon, I will open up my door.

But I hate you young people, well I just do not know,
And I can't even understand you
When you try to talk slow.

==================================================

I love this crazy little song! So I recorded a home version and got a load of pictures off google images to make this video. Thanks for watching :)
