Statler Brothers, The - Do You Remember These Lyrics






Saturday morning serials chapters 1 through 15
Fly paper, penny loafers, Lucky Strike Green
Flat tops, sock hops, Studebaker, Pepsi please
Ah, do you remember these?

Cigar bands on your hand, your daddy's socks rolled down
Styx nose plugs and aviator caps with flaps that button down
Movie stars on Dixie Cup tops and knickers to your knees
Ah, do you remember these?

The hit parade, grape Tru-Aid, the Sadie Hawkins dance
Pedal pushers, duck tail hair, and peggin' your pants
Howdy-Doody, Tutti-Frutti, the seam up the back of her hose
Ah, do you remember those?

James Dean, he was keen, Sunday movies were taboo
The senior prom, Judy's mom, rock and roll was new
Cracker Jack prize, stars in your eyes, ask daddy for the keys
Ah, do you remember these?

The bogeyman, lemonade stand, and takin' your tonsils out
Indian burn and wait your turn and four foul balls you're out
Cigarette loads and secret codes and savin' lucky stars
Can you remember back that far?

To boat neck shirts and fender skirts and crinoline petticoats
Mum's the word and a dirty bird and a double root beer float
Moon hub caps and loud heel taps and he's a real gone cat
Ah, do you remember that?

Dancin' close, little moron jokes, and cooties in her hair
Captain Midnight, Ovaltine, and The Whip at the County Fair
Charles Atlas Course, Roy Roger's Horse, and only The Shadow knows
Ah, do you remember those?

Gable's charm, Frog in your arm, loud mufflers, pitchin' woo
Going steady, Veronica and Betty, white bucks, and Blue Suede Shoes
Knock Knock jokes: Who's there? Dewey. Dewey who?
Do we remember these? Yes we do. Ah, do we, do we remember these

    Liz Linville for sure

  63. M.... Y....

    I was born in the 70' but I think you were lucky to be born in that time

  64. R.... S....

    Lucky me. I saw the Statler Bros. on their first show at Salt Lake's Patio Gardens as part of the Johnny Cash Show. That was 1963.

    R.... S....

    Hey Richard Skola I think your timeline is off a bit, The Statler Brothers didn't join The Johnny Cash Show until March of 1964. They mention that date in their tribute song to Johnny, We Got Paid By Cash.

  65. M.... H....

    AAAAWAAAAAAYYY
    The sweet peaceful tunes of these guys

  66. G.... B....

    Hello vietnam

  67. L.... M....

    Many many years ago! My mother’s family had a picnic at Gypsy Hill Park and Don and Harold were there for a picnic also! P S I will never forget the songs when Lew was singing with them!

  68. S.... A....

    Is it Sunday mourning again?

  69. S.... A....

    Do you children remember that?

  70. S.... A....

    How many Books do have we have remember, umm?

  71. S.... A....

    Look's like another bible quiz again, Wow. Upps!

    S.... A....

    Stefanie Anderson what?

  72. S.... A....

    Why is this, I can not listen to the Statler Bros. now?

  73. S.... A....

    A Great America!

  74. S.... A....

    What a time it was!

  75. l.... h....

    i'm 15 remembering all these.. this sung 40 years from now would be funny... Spinnin beyblades! droppin tilted! aaaaaah so you remember that

    l.... h....

    lucas hildebrand why don’t you write an updated version? It would be cool!

  76. k.... ....

    how in the world can so many people dislike this video? they must not be a fan at all of the Statler brothers or older style county music. this is a great video and song

    k.... ....

    They don't dislike the Statler Brothers or Country Music.  What they dislike is the America of the 1950s and 60s.  Their hatred is palpable.  They like to misery of the 21st Century.  Hell, lock your doors to keep these people out.  Leave them to the colleges and the multi million dollar Oberlin decision.

  77. s.... m....

    Wow I guess some people haven't remembered this
    Kind of a shame if you ask me.

  78. T.... S....

    I take issue with the Trader Joe's root beer. Trader Joe's wasn't even around till 1967. Nah, it's A&W. Period. Other than that one glaring error I LOVE this bit.

    T.... S....

    You are right, it was A&W.

    T.... S....

    I remember A&W Rootbeer Barrel Stands. In California, driving old HWY 99 in the early 60s there were Orange shaped buildings selling fresh squeezed Ice Orange Juice, and Lemonade.

  79. J.... N....

    If I could go back I would! Amazing song, amazing musicians, and it was an amazing time to be a kid back then.

  80. J.... N....

    MEMORIES....

  81. E.... ....

    Nope, I don't remember any of them...
    But then if I were to talk about IXL, Amscol, Golden Fleece, FUIC, Chad Morgan or Harold Holt...
    Most likely many people wouldn't know what I'm talking about!

    E.... ....

    ok i will say it who the hell were they what year and what type of music did they sing ?

  82. J.... C....

    Ilike all the comments. Really like the oñes from the youñg people my daughter is in her mid thirties. So l am getting older too. But i dont let people c that. Maybe im not that old after all. God bless each and every one of u.

  83. T.... C....

    Thanks for the memories.

  84. S.... O....

    A super GREAT song and a so well put together video! Thank you!

  85. P.... o....

    Remember all of them

  86. P.... ....

    this song is about the 1950s

    P.... ....

    Patriot It’s about the 1950’s and different events and things from before that...

    P.... ....

    Agreed, I am 66 and I remember Levis pants with a genuine Leather Patch, Four balls and you were out in sandlot games, Over the line and invisible baseball games.

  87. G.... K....

    At 0:23, seeing the Pepsi machine brought back memories (I'm 55 now). Also at 1:30, the bass (don't know his name) said "Four foul balls, you're out". Did it used to be that way?

    G.... K....

    When you played baseball, kickball or softball at school, you always played where if you got four foul balls you were called out to limit the time of the game since you played in gym or at recess.

    G.... K....

    Harold reid is the bass. He still lives here in staunton along with jimmy. I see jimmy walkin around the park every now and then.

  88. j.... b....

    I remember all of these things and it made me think of other things. 90 % of what we use today
    was invented in my life time

  89. S.... W....

    thanks love you guys

  90. J.... J....

    Oh yes I remember those. Those were the good ole days.....

  91. J.... B....

    Great song about yesteryear.

  92. l.... A....

    A multi- generational song!

  93. H.... ....

    I am glad I am the age I am (except when it comes to women) I got to grow up with all that great stuff.

  94. M.... B....

    I'm only 43 but I remember some of this stuff.

  95. R.... B....
