Days Of 69
Days of 69-----------------------------------John Caljouw (2018)
Well, it´s a Saturday night in the Garden Of The Marksmen
With romancers and dancers in search for an adventure
There is passion in the air when the band starts playing
The crowd is making moves to the beat of the drummerboy
The singer´s looking at the girls who are dancing in the frontrows
Taking his pick for the park in the night, after the show
The Molucan guitarplayer is laying out his soundscapes
His skinny brother on the Guild is setting in Gloria
Those were the days
Those were the days of sixtynine
Carlos played the Fender-bass, or his Burgundy Gretsch
Singing Schooldays and Bony Merony from scratch
He could only look at the girls ´cause he was a married man
Tony and Johnny made it up behind the curtains of the bandstand
On the Ludwig drumkit The Powerboy is rolling out his fills
Syncopated rhythm on the bassdrum and lots of technical skills
Hank Don laying loaded in the trunk of the Glass-car
He played all the riffs of Coleman Hawkins, the jazz star
Those were the days (In the days of old
Those were the days of sixtynine
