Cindy

(album: Like The Old Days - 1978)

Remember the tune that your daddy would play
When a pretty balloon would make you happy and gay
Oh, Cindy

Right on his knees you were singing the song
Feeling really at ease knowing where you belonged
Oh, Cindy

He couldn't stop you getting older
Watched you growing to his shoulder
Dreaming of his sunny days with Cindy

But he felt with understanding
Sunny days might soon be ending
When rock 'n' roll would break into your life

Rock 'n' roll would change his baby
To a lovely little lady
Someone else would come and call her "Cindy"

Rock 'n' roll would see her dancing
Waking up and start romancing
'Till the day when she would go away

Now you're grown up, with a girl of your own
Don't forget what you've got
Try to give a good home to Cindy

Play her a song as your daddy would do
To make her happy and strong whenever she's blue
Your Cindy

You can't stop her getting older
Watch her growing to your shoulder
Dreaming of your sunny days with Cindy

But you feel with understanding
Sunny days might soon be ending
When rock 'n' roll would will break into her life

Rock 'n' roll would change his baby
To a lovely little lady
Someone else would come and call her "Cindy"

Rock 'n' roll would see her dancing
Waking up and start romancing
'Till the day when she would go away
