Sadly, 50's nostalgia has been in decline since the late 80's, as with each passing year the 50's shifts from being in the "retro/nostalgia" category to the "history" category. Teens today would laugh at you if you play this music today!

when america was real...english was our language...the illegal immigrants didnt flood the streets, the nation supported our military...schools werent teaching children its totally normal to be a homosexual, welfare wasnt around, the streets were safe, america was real, america was real, america was real!

if we all unite, we can take our country back to where it should. the land of the free and the home of the brave
bring back english
kick them out
get our jobs back
