Tommy's selling used cars
Nancy's fixing 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 probaly always will
Bob works for the city
And Jack's in lab research
And Peggy plays the organ
At the Presbyterian Church
And the class of '57 had it's dreams
We all thought
We'd change the world
With our great words and deeds
Or maybe we just thought the world
Would change to fit our needs
The class of '57 had it's 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
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 Mavis 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 it's dreams
But living life from day to day
Is never like it seems
Things get complicated
When you get past eighteen
The class of '57 had it's dreams
Oh the class of '57 had it's dreams
