Was I There

Verse 1

Some say it was really just like that 

Some say you were groovy in your hippy hat 

But now I tell you I don’t recall 

Finding freedom and having a ball 

 

Chorus 

When did we fly high in the sky? 

When did we float in the magic Boat? 

Was I there to share with you?  

Can you tell me give me a clue 

 

Verse 2

Some say that workers all went on strike 

Some say I just wanted to ride my bike 

But I know for sure that it was all hard graft 

So don’t you tell me I am going daft 

 

Chorus 

When did we fly high in the sky? 

When did we float in the magic Boat? 

Was I there to share with you?  

Can you tell me give me a clue 

 

Verse 3

Some say that we all signed on the dole 

Some say plain people just broke down the wall 

In our new England we just raised our sons  

Not changing the world nor running with guns 

 

Chorus 

When did we fly high in the sky? 

When did we float in the magic Boat? 

Was I there to share with you?  

Can you tell me give me a clue

Chorus Repeated 

When did we fly high in the sky? 

When did we float in the magic Boat? 

Was I there to share with you?  

Can you tell me give me a clue
