"Take Me Back" lyrics

I was born in the wrong year
I shoulda been born in 1970
When rock and roll was free, yeah
I would turn on the radio
And sing along with every melody
Like it was made for me

It took me 'til the age of seventeen
To hear how music used to be
My parents did their best but
Religion had a funny way of robbing me
And I remember how it felt the first time
Rock and roll was played for me
It took me to a place I'd never been
Knew that I could never leave

I was born in the wrong year
I shoulda been born in 1970
When rock and roll was free, yeah
I would turn on the radio
And sing along with every melody
Like it was made for me

Driving just to find what I'm looking for
Person I had never been
Singing loud to Freddie with the windows down
Learning how to live again (Ooh yeah, woah)

I was born in the wrong year
I shoulda been born in 1970
When rock and roll was free, yeah
I would turn on the radio
And sing along with every melody
Like it was made for me

Yeah
(Take me back!)
(Come on!)
(Hey!)

Come on!
And take me back (Take me back)
Take me back (Take me back)
Here we go, come on!
Take me back (Take me back)
(I was born in the wrong year)
(I shoulda been born in 1970)
Take me back (Take me back)
(When rock and roll was free, yeah)
Everybody! Take me back (Take me back)
(I would turn on the radio)
(And sing along with every melody)
Yeah, yeah! Take me back (Take me back)
(Like it was made for me)
Woah

I was born in the wrong year
I shoulda been born in 1970 (Take me back)
When rock and roll was free, yeah (Take me back)
I would turn on the radio
And sing along with every melody (Take me back)
Like it was made for me (Take me back)
