Driving down the road the other day a Rolling Stones song came on the radio and my girlfriend shouted "This was my swingset song!" I had to laugh because I thought I was the only little girl that ever had a "swingset song".  Did you have one?
 
You know, a song that you would sing while soaring through the air and touching your toes to the clouds on your swing...
 
My song was "Centerfold" by J.Geils band...(lol!)
 
What was yours? I don't imagine that boys had swingset songs? :)

    I have had a couple of older songs that stick in my head and remind me of being young(ER) again - one of them was the redone version of 'Born to Run' by Frankie Goes to Hollywood - ring any bells?

    I never even knew a guy that had a swing set.

    We did stand in front of the swings and watch for the dresses to swing up.

    Showing my age...used to listen to things like Johnny Cash and Roger Miller in those days before Elvis and the Beatles.....but I was swinging...... and I honestly think I can remember singing this while I swung!  

     

    We had a boxy old radio that we plugged into the socket on the front porch and listened to things like Cash's "Ring of Fire" and "Mountain of Love" by someone.... I liked Roger Miller----Chug-A-Lug was a good one, too!  Oh, and "Dang Me, Oughta Get a Rope and Hang Me!

    You think I'm joshing you?  I can see myself right now.....sitting on that old porch, playing with my kittens and watching my older sisters sing along, just before the turn of the music industry....

    Well, darned if I can't even think of one.  I don't think I had one at all, though very little time was spent on any sort of swing set, so I guess there ya go, lol.

        Swingsets ? There were no swingsets . . . all I had were wooden blocks and a leather belt :o)  .   The belt often left me looking like a zebra.

    Coolio, gangsters paradise : ) My cousin Emilia and I would sing that song as fast as we could while playing on the swings, whoever finished the whole song first or whoever remembered every lyric won!  It was fun.
