[ country-folk ] Click Here for Free Song Download Ridin' in on the tail of Bill Halley’s Comet band Between a second world war and the one in Vietnam Slipped into the cradle of an all-American boom Sent rockets past the moon, now we’ll all be seniors soon We’re the baby boomers, we’re the baby boomers Zippin’ down the freeway, shoppin’ at the mall Deficits are growin’ and lately there’s been rumors There’s far too many of us to take care of us all The price of livin’s bound to keep on goin' up and up As we begin to dip in social security’s broken cup Health care costs are rocketin' way too high to fall An' it seems most folks in Washington don’t give a damn at all We’re the baby boomers, we’re the baby boomers Zippin’ down the freeway, shoppin’ at the mall Deficits are growin’ and lately there’s been rumors There’s far too many of us to take care of us all Wall Street wizards on the lam from a mental institution Claim private retirement funds, they are the best solution But when the markets crash we'll be askin' where's the cash Guess them folks in D.C. must be smokin' Texas hash Odds are as we get older, we’ll likely get more ill As we’re farmed out to the mansion up on rest home hill Will congress pay the piper when all the money’s gone? Replace them all, start over, while we all still can We’re the baby boomers, we’re the baby boomers Zippin’ down the freeway, shoppin’ at the mall Yeah, deficits are growin’ and lately there’s been rumors There’s far too many of us to take care of us all Yeah, some of us have warts an' some have cancer tumors There’s just far too many of us to take care of us all
