Cigarettes were a quarter then, bobby socks and jeans were in
Elvis sang the songs that we loved so
The most important thing to us was putting gas in my old truck
So I could take us to the drive-in show

Graduation finally came, Uncle Sam called me away
You married someone else while I was gone
I kept your letters all these years and I can't help but shed a tear
When I read the words you wrote me years ago

"Baby, I'm yours, I'll love you always
I'm gonna stand by you until the end of time
Remember all the good things we shared together"
Signed, "Love, Betty, 1959"

I never will forget the day that you and I went all the way
I was the first for you and you for me
I've still got the truck that we loved in
It takes me back there now and then, back to '59, my memory

"Baby, I'm yours, I'll love you always
I'm gonna stand by you until the end of time
Remember all the good things we shared together"
Signed, "Love, Betty, 1959"
