I came here from the battlefield in 1946
Built my home from brick and steel
Not from stones and sticks
Three strong booming babies
A job and a wife
Barbeque and television
A wonderful life
Woah, woah - heaven
Woah, woah - heaven
Jackie broke the color line
Man that kid could play
Charlie and the indochine
Were still light-years away
Woah, woah - heaven
Woah, woah - heaven
On the road with jack and neil
The wheels go round and round
Drunken joe mcCarthy keeps his ear pressed to the ground
Woah, woah - heaven
Woah, woah, this is heaven
For a while the tradtitional system of authority held
For a while, all was calm. For a while...
You and I will watch the sky
Lock the doors at night
And if the kids learn duck and cover
Everything will be all right
Built my home from brick and steel
Not from stones and sticks
Three strong booming babies
A job and a wife
Barbeque and television
A wonderful life
Woah, woah - heaven
Woah, woah - heaven
Jackie broke the color line
Man that kid could play
Charlie and the indochine
Were still light-years away
Woah, woah - heaven
Woah, woah - heaven
On the road with jack and neil
The wheels go round and round
Drunken joe mcCarthy keeps his ear pressed to the ground
Woah, woah - heaven
Woah, woah, this is heaven
For a while the tradtitional system of authority held
For a while, all was calm. For a while...
You and I will watch the sky
Lock the doors at night
And if the kids learn duck and cover
Everything will be all right
