I Found Your 45’s – Rockvale Records

I went up to your house after the service
Something made me go right away
Felt like a hand pulling me in
I got a little nervous
Took me to a room at staircase
When I popped the door open, a cloud of dust
Hit me right square in the face

I found your 45’s
I keep em by my side
They will always be alive
I play them one by one
Memories run like a setting sun
These tunes we’d always kindled
Stack em up on the spindle
We’d knock em down, one by one
I found your 45’s

There’s gotta be a couple hundred records
Songs we’d air-guitar to, mercy me
We’d put em on, sing every song
2 crazy brothers
Music was always in the family
There was Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash
You even had the Monster Mash
And the first song I learned to play on Dad’s guitar

I found your 45’s
I keep em by my side
They will always be alive
I play them one by one
Years run on like a setting sun
These tunes we’d always kindled
Stack em up on the spindle
Knock em down, flip em round
Groove to the sounds of the B-sides
Round and round and round

They say a photograph can hold a thousand words
But a phonograph speaks louder to me
Each time I play another song
Like a pot of gold to a leprechaun
This one you left with me
Bobby, I promise you
Nothing’s gonna take them away from me

I found your 45’s
Always by my side
And you’ll always be alive
I play them one by one
Tears roll down like the setting sun
These tunes we’d always kindled
Stack em up on that spindle
Knock em down, one by one
Groove to the sounds of the B-sides
Round and round they go…
We rocked it up
We sang the blues
They’d spin around
We’d have a few
Made us feel we’d go on forever
