Lyrics

(When the word was Thunderbird)
 (And the price was 40 twice)
 (Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun, honey)
 ♪
 Up every morning at the crack of dawn
 Nights as short as the days are long
 Life turned out to be another magazine
 I'm livin' with a stranger now
 The girl I knew got away somehow
 She went out with two bit gasoline
 I wanna go back
 You know what I mean, ah
 When the word was Thunderbird
 And the price was 40 twice
 Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun
 Oh, but love turned out to be a passin' thing
 Different bird of a different wing
 Some damn fool put a dollar 29
 On a jug of Thunderbird wine
 And Lord, I don't know if I'm gonna make it
 I don't know if I'll have the strength to take it
 Everything's hung up in yesterday, hey
 Married to a civic-minded social girl
 Takin' short cuts in a woman's world
 She won't let her hair down when I'm home
 Society's just slavery
 And security is a-killing me
 I work hard for it but I give it all away
 If I could go back to yesterday
 When the word was Thunderbird
 And the price was 40 twice
 Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun
 Oh, but love turned out to be a passin' thing
 Different bird of a different wing
 Some damn fool put a dollar 29
 On a jug of Thunderbird wine
 And Lord, I don't know if I'm gonna make it
 I don't know if I'll have the strength to take it
 Everything's hung up in yesterday
 ♪
 When the word was Thunderbird
 And the price was 40 twice
 Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun
