[Chorus]
Well, this is 1960
And today I'm 21
I feel mighty frisky
So I'm gonna have some fun

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna pour a little body
Invite, invite some little dollies
We gonna dine and dance
And get around to makin' romance

[Verse 2]
We gonna let our hair down
And we'll paint the town
We might get around
To drinkin' constitution

[Chorus]
This is 1960, today I'm only 21
You only live but once
And when you're dead
Brother, you're done

(Ah, constitution)

[Instrumental Break]

(Ah, mosquito legs)

[Verse 3]
We gonna let our hair down
And we'll paint the town
We might get around
To drinkin' constitution

[Chorus]
This is 1960, today I'm only 21
You only live but once
And when you're dead
Brother, you're donе

[Outro]
Yes, this is 1960 and boys
I'm gonna have fun
This is 1960 and girls
I'm gonna have fun
This is 1960 and girls
I'm gonna havе fun
