If it seems like I've been lost in let's remember If you think I'm feeling older and missing my younger days
Oh, then you should have known me much better Cause my past is something that never Got in my way Oh... No
Still I would not be here now if I never had the hunger
And I'm not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends
Oh... Cause I never felt the desire Till their music set me on fire And then I was saved, yeah...
That's why I'm keeping the faith Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...Keeping the faith
We wore matador boots only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel Iridescent socks with the same color shirt and a tight pair of chinos
Oh... I put on my shark skin jacket You know the kind with the velvet collar And ditty-bop shades Oh yeah...
I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen
My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave
Oh... Combed my hair in a pompadour
Like the rest of the Romeos wore A permanent wave, Yeah... We were keeping the faith Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Keeping the faith
You can get just so much from a good thing You can linger too long in your dreams
Say goodbye to the oldies but goodies
Cause the good ole days weren't always good And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems Learned stickball as a formal education
Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O.K.
Oh... I heard about *** but not enough I found you could dance and still look tough anyway
Oh yes I did I found out a man ain't just being macho Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food Drank a lot of take-home pay I thought I was the Duke of Earl When I made it with a red-haired girl in the Chevrolet
Oh yeah... We were keeping the faith Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Keeping the faith Oh... You know the good ole days weren't always good And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems Now I told you my reasons for the whole revival Now I'm going outside to have an ice cold beer in the shade Oh... I'm going to listen to my 45's
Ain't it wonderful to be alive When the rock 'n' roll plays, yeah... When the memory stays, yeah... I'm keeping the faith Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Keeping the faith
I'm keeping the faith Yes I am You know I'm keeping the faith, yes I am
You know I'm keeping the faith ......
