Lyrics
I wish I was a boomer baby and not be deprived of
Coming of age around the time of all that hippy love
Shakin' a leg and takin' the stage with the Beatles and the Stones
Getting it on till the light of dawn, leads the way back home
Last night I dreamt I saw Hendrix playing in a bar
And there was Janis wailing along with that magical guitar
Peace and love was in the air and a little reefer too
And as Gracie Slick did a solo lick, I woke next to you
Chorus
Why couldn't I be a groovy dude, way cool and out of site
With casual ways and purple haze appearing twice a night
Smokin' the dubes in our own commune, and wearing a big O' smile
Come on Raquel, you southern belle, be my flower child
Chorus
Well now the hippies have all retired and settled in senior homes
But something tells me that way of life, still rattles in their bones
It wasn't long before Mary-Jane became common among the Folk
And after a draw, Nurse Rachet's bra, went suddenly up in smoke
Chorus * 2
