Lyrics:

''Oak Ridge Boys – Didn’t She Really Thrill Them (Back in 1924)''

She sits there on the front porch every day at four O’clock
Waving at the traffic that runs up and down the block
Her face and hands are wrinkled, and her gray hair almost shines
Over fifty years have come and gone since she was in her prime

A high school girl in blue jeans stops each Thursday afternoon
to talk about life and love and phases of the moon
She lets the girl try on the gowns she’s kept for all these years
and talks about when she was young her old eyes filled with tears

Didn’t she really thrill them back in 1924
The young men fell in love with her
when she came through the door
every dance was taken,
still they’d ask for just one more
Oh, she stole their hearts away in 1924

She closed the photo album as she rocked there in the chair
Here’s the men she almost married, they all looked so debonair
She remembers all their faces and the night each one proposed
It makes her feel so young again as her old eyes slowly close

The papers never said much when the old maid passed away
For the man who drove the moving van it was just another day
The boys never understood when the young girl left the store
just why she sent a wreath that said “from the class of ‘24”

Didn’t she really thrill them back in 1924
The young men fell in love with her
when she came through the door
every dance was taken,
still they’d ask for just one more
Oh, she stole their hearts away in 1924

Didn’t she really thrill them back in 1924
The young men fell in love with her
when she came through the door
every dance was taken,
still they’d ask for just one more
Oh, she stole their hearts away in 1924 (…fade)
