6X9 Speakers

They’re six by nine speakers and an alpine deck
Boston’s first album and a youthful expectation
That someday we’d rule the world
16 and a half it’s all so clear
It’s all about girls and music and beer
And maybe just a little football on Friday nights
Oh boys, where we gonna party now?
Oh boys, get your cheap trick cassettes out
And crank your 100 watt speakers and your cricko deck
Back in Black and that youthful expectation
That someday you’ll rule the world
There weren’t a lot 'round our little vilage
So we’d load up and go plunder a village
Mostly we just talked real loud and we’d cruise the streets
Oh boys, where we gonna party now?
Oh boys, get your cheap trick cassettes out
And crank your 100 watt speakers and your Sparkomatic deck
Van Halen One and that youthful expectation
That someday you’ll rule the world
Radio and rain were so much alike
Only got a little when the clouds were just right
So any money made loadin' cattle or hay
Went right for a new cassette or a speaker upgrade
Oh ain’t it an upgrade?
16 and a half it’s all so clear
It’s all about girls and music and beer
And lookin' back now
I realize that many things have never changed
Some got married, some left to play ball
Some kept drinkin' and kinda wasted it all
And me, I picked up a guitar and tried to write
About six by nine speakers and alpine deck
Boston’s first album and our youthful expectation
Someday we’d rule the world
So load up your buddies and put your favorite tape on
Nothin' feels better than a three chord rom and roll song
And thinkin' man, someday we’re gonna rule the world
