once upon a time

Lyrics

once upon a time when i was in high school, i was in love with a lady she treated me so cool, i was driving an chevy '72, it had four on the floor, 120 it would do, and i remember marvin gaye singing, let's get it on, there was a war baby somewhere across the sea, i didn't want to go to fight girl 'cause you were real loving me, but i remember martin luther king, lord he was the man baby who gave us all a dream, and i remember marvin gaye singing, let's get it on, lord he made me so strong, i remember marvin gaye singing, let's get it on, we used to have sweet music in the park, way up in monterrey they sang throughout the dark, and you used to wear girl that gypsy dress, when you stroll on by all the boys they want a chance, and i remember marvin gaye singing, let's get it on, he made my love so strong, i remember otis redding, sitting on the dock of the bay, oh lord he went away, i remember sam cooke singing, bring it on home to me, from your love i can be free, i remember elvis presley and the blues suede shoes, lord they give me the blues, i remember marvin gaye singing, let's get it on
