Dave Edmunds - Generation Rumble lyrics

Mother and daughter fighting it out Who's gonna stay home tonight Who wears the make up, hangs on the phone It always seems to end in a fight It don't seem long since momma was a child bride She got married in a hurry Sixteen years old on the day Ooh what a wedding, driving 'til dawn With a rock n'roll band to play She wore black when daddy gave the the bride away It's just a generation rumble A war between two worlds Givin' momma lots of trouble Baby's getting married but she's still her daddy's little girl Now the years roll by - the family brings Big changes onto the scene Sweet sixteen's turned thirty four But boy, she's still the same little queen Life's full of trips - she's gonna follow every dream It's just a generation rumble A war between two worlds Givin' momma lots of trouble Baby's grown up, but momma's still the same old girl Mother and daughter fighting it out Who's gonna get their own way Doctor says, "Take it easy now Take two of these every day." Doctor, doctor, you can throw your pills away It's just a generation rumble A war between two worlds Givin' momma lots of trouble Baby's grown up, but momma's still the same old girl Baby's grown up, but momma's still the same old girl Baby's grown up, but momma's still the same old girl.
