I Wanna Know

Have you got a minute?

A little time that we can spend

Open up and let me in

Share some memories

People in a hurry

Everyday goes by so fast

No one takes the time

To ask how it used to be

I wanna know, did your father own an automobile

Or a two horse carriage with wood spoke wheels?

I hear you used to walk to school seven miles a day

Did you ever ride a railroad train?

And the very first time you saw a plane

Did you think the world had gone insane?

Tell me what you've got to say, I wanna know

Words can paint a picture

Sharper than a photograph

I know you can take me back

To times I?ll never see

Got a lot of questions

There?s so much I want to learn

You can make the pages

Turn in living history

I wanna know, did your father own an automobile

Or a two horse carriage with wood spoke wheels?

I hear you used to walk to school seven miles a day

Did you ever ride a railroad train?

And the very first time you saw a plane

Did you think the world had gone insane?

Tell me what you've got to say, I wanna know

Have you got a minute?

A little time that we could spend

Open up and let me in

Share some memories
