Tommy's selling used cars
Nancy's fi ing hair
Harvey runs a grocery store
and Margaret doesn't care
Jerry drives a truck for Sears
and Charlotte's on the make
And Paul sells life insurance
and part time real estate
Helen is a hostess,
Frank works at the mill
Janet teaches grade school
and prob'ly always will
Bob works for the city and
Jack's in lab research
And Peggy plays organ at
the Presbyterian Church
And the class of '57 had dreams
Oh We all thought we'd change the world
with our great works and deeds
Or maybe we just thought the world
would change to fit our needs
The class of '57 had dreams
Betty runs a trailer park,
Jan sells Tupperware
Randy's on an insane ward
and Mary's on welfare
Charlie took a job with Ford
and Joe took Freddie's wife
Charlotte took a millionaire
and Freddie took his life.
John is big in cattle,
Ray is deep in debt
Where Marvis finally wound up
is anybody's bet
Linda married Sonny, Brenda married me
And the class of all of us
is just a part of history
And the class of '57 had dreams
But living life day to day
is never like it seems
Things get complicated
when you get past eighteen
But the class of '57 had its dreams
Oh the class of '57 had dreams
