When drugs was Aspirin for a cold
Cool Aid was the drink of the day
You could walk in the park without a gun
If there was a fight it was one on one
The guy selling drugs we all would shun
Drive in movies were usually a double date
When she got home Mom and Dad would wait
One thing was sure you better not be late
The gang hung out at the local drive in
Guys wearing Letterman's jacket would usually win
My friends were black, yellow, red white and brown
Didn't know color cried a week my black friend drowned
If you talked on the phone neighbor heard every word
I you used bad language Mom would know that was assured
You didn't fear guns, gangs, but when Dad came home
Your friends were denied you spend time in your bedroom alone
