Those Days in Birmingham Lyrics by John Lodge

10,000 Light Years Ago

0

When the school bell rang at the end of the day
And we packed our bags and off to Eddie's cafe
Where the Rock-o-la played the 45’s
Of Vincent and Cochran and Peggy Sue
Shocked the world that I knew
Those days in Birmingham
Like a bolt of lightning out of the blue
Took me by surprise rock 'n' roll can do
Had to buy a guitar strum away those blues
Three chords an amp and a running J2
Shook the world that I knew
Those days in Birmingham
Looking back on every club I played
I wonder what became of you
Mothers Tyburn the Elbow Room
Will never fade away
Reliving those days in Birmingham
Standing in the shadow on the side of the stage
Another world tour how the times have changed
A mountain of gear I could never dream of
Looking in the window of Jack Woodruff
Shook the world that I knew
Those days in Birmingham
Looking back on every club I played
I wonder what became of you
Mothers Tyburn the Elbow Room
Will never fade away
Reliving those crazy days in Birmingham
In Birmingham
Remember those days back in Birmingham
Remember those days back in Birmingham
Remember those days back in Birmingham
