Do You Remember These?

Burma Shave with the Statler Brothers

You may need to watch it twice - once to watch the Burma shave signs change and once to catch all the pictures plus listening to the music of the Statler Brothers.

Lyrics in the extended entry.

Saturday morning serials chapters 1 through 15

Fly paper penny loafers
Lucky Strike Green

Flat tops sock
hops Studebaker Pepsi please

Ah do you remember these

Cigar bands on your hand your daddy's socks rolled down

Sticks snow floats and aviator caps with flaps that button down

STYX NOSE PLUGS and aviator caps with flaps that button down

Movie stars on Dixie Cup tops and knickers to your knees

Ah do you remember these

The hit parade grape Tru-Aid The Sadie Hawkins Dance

Pedal pushers duck tail hair and peggin' your pants

Howdie-Doodie Tutti-Frutti the seam up the back of her hose

HOWDY - DOODY

Ah do you remember those

James Dean he was keen Sunday movies were taboo

The Senior Prom Judy's mom rock and roll was new

Cracker Jack prize stars in your eyes as daddy tore the keys

ASK DADDY FOR THE KEYS

Ah do you remember these

The boogey man lemonade stand and takin' your tonsils out

Hindenburg and wait your turn and four foul balls you're out

INDIAN BURN and wait your turn........

Cigarette loads and secret codes and savin' lucky stars

Can you remember back that far

The boat neck shirts and fender skirts and crinoline petticoats

Mum's the word and a dirty bird and a double root beer float

Moon hub caps and loud heel taps and he's a real gone cat

Ah do you remember that

Dancin' close little moron jokes and cooties in her hair

Captain Midnight Ovaltine and The Whip at the County Fair

Charles Atlas Course Roy Roger's Horse and only The Shadow knows

Ah do you remember those

Gable's charm Frog in your arm loud mufflers pitchin' woo

Going steady Veronica and Betty white bucks and Blue Suede Shoes

Knock Knock jokes and who's there Dewey Dewey who

Do we remember these yes we do ah do we do we remember these
