1972 Lyrics


1972
Daddy drove in over, it was sky blue
He worked at a record store after school
Call it sympathy for the vinyl

1972
Turntable in the basement, Major Cool
A hippie girl, couple cold beers split in two
You got your own rock n roll revival

Girl you know they didn’t ride
So come on over tonight

I’m gonna rock you like Zeppelin, roll you like the stones
Burr like them speakers in my old headphones
Gonna fly like an eagle when I drop a needle on the blues
I’m gonna get the metal piece down from the attic
With a pop and a hiss and a little bit of static
We’ll be chillin' like a villain on some Dylan while we’re killin' some booze
We’re gonna kick it like the kids did in 1972

So will it just be me and you
Playing air drums with The Who’s Keith Moon
You know them good ones always die too soon
Like Jimmy, Jim and Joplin

Yea, kickin back, cutting loose
Sippin on Jack, that’s what we do
It don’t matter baby girl cus in a few
You’re gonna hear heaven a knockin

Look out!

I’m gonna rock you like Zeppelin, roll you like the stones
Burr like them speakers in my old headphones
Gonna fly like an eagle when I drop a needle on the blues
I’m gonna get the metal piece down from the attic
With a pop and a hiss and a little bit of static
We’ll be chillin' like a villain on some Dylan while we’re killin' some booze
Well let’s kick it like the kids did in 1972

I’m gonna rock you like Zeppelin, roll you like the stones
Burr like them speakers in my old headphones
Gonna fly like an eagle when I drop a needle on the blues
I’m gonna get the metal piece down from the attic
With a pop and a hiss and a little bit of static
We’ll be chillin' like a villain on some Dylan while we’re killin' some booze
Well let’s kick it like the kids did in 1972

Yea, we’re gonna kick it like the kids did in 1972

  • This nostalgic Jaren Johnston and Jim Beavers penned Southern Rock tune features shout outs to classic rockers. "The feel of it resembles the title, Jake Owen told Billboard magazine. "It's got a cool Stones-y kind of feel to it. It's a southern rock kind of thing, and I love all the throwback references to Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison, and 'Daddy drove a Nova that was sky blue.' There's just a cool groove to it."
