lyrics

Sylvia lived
in great houses on the north plain
till the hand of time
came and it swept them away
bands would play
she'd dance to the music they made
served in the war
with the girls in the ladies brigade
And all the boys would hang around
they don't come around much these days
but you must have been a knockout
in your day

Married a man
first boyfriend she ever had
raised some kids
now shes not saying things are that bad
but all their friends would come around
she can't count that many these days
Ah but you must have been a knockout
in your day

And all the boys would hang around
they don't come around much these days
And all their friends would come around
she can't count that many these days
Oh but you must have been a knockout
in your day
in your day
