	I have a gentle memory, of denim over leather,

	I forget the breakin' down, I forget the weather

	A future that was funded wild, on the never never

	I have a gentle memory of it all


Verse 1

	Sex and drugs and rock and roll were all we ever sought

	There was no crime, there was no sin, unless sometimes you got caught

	The beers gone by were many, with nothing that we couldn't do

	The mud then didn't matter much, and years on still doesn't, too


Verse 2

	We roamed the land from east to west, we roamed from coast to coast.

	With tales of frames and gears and sparks, each arriving was a boast

	The beers gone by were drunken down by, fearless heroes, 

	No-one ever had to ask a name, they knew you by your clothes.



Verse 3

	Guys are starin' at the pretty girls, cos they say you'd better

	Disrepect is to ignore, you'd better not upset her

	Girls are starin' at the pretty guy, and with them is his missus

	Appreciation all around, in the lovely crazy world that this is
