In 68, Julie was Johnny's date.
Two kids, grown together,
as if time was slipping away.
Oh, they were just sixteen,
and their love a teenage dream.
the line that ran between.
Julia, Johnny, now you've made it
If you're one of the sixteens
You know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong
Maybe they can put it all together
In a show that'll last forever
Oh, they would walk the strippin' nights
And dream they saw their name in light
On a desolation boulevard
They'd light the fading light
Susie and Davey, you can make it
You've just gotta be strong,
if you're one of the sixties
you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go around,
So where were you in sixty eight
when Bobby and Billy thought
They took the flowers from their hair
Tried to make her somewhere
So they lived from day to day
They tried to do it all their way
maybe you'll make it one day
You just gotta be strong,
if you're one of the sixties
you know you know it ain't easy
you know you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong
Cause you're all one of the sixteens
you know you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong
you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong
Cause you're all part of the sixties
