"When The Needle Hit The Vinyl" lyrics - JOEY FEEK

We never saw 'em holdin' hands
Or kissin' all that much
But they must of dug each other
'Cause heck there was five of us
Mama held fort down and daddy went to work
We never thought about what she meant to him
Or what he meant to her

Sometimes on Saturdays, they'd crank up that stereo
Grab a stack of old 45 records
And we'd watch 'em put on a show

[Chorus:]
When the needle hit the vinyl
Mama's hair came down
Daddy came unwound
In their own world
Just a boy and girl
Couldn't believe our eyes
How they came alive
When the needle hit the vinyl

Five kids on a worn out couch
We didn't say a word
Daddy put on "My Girl" and he sang it right to her
Mama, she was glowin'
Daddy made the perfect moves
Neither one of them seemed like the mom and daddy we knew
They both looked younger as they went around and around
Under the spell of that poppin' cracklin' sound

[Chorus:]
When the needle hit the vinyl
Mama's hair came down
Daddy came unwound
In their own world
Just a boy and girl
Couldn't believe our eyes
How they came alive
When the needle hit the vinyl

[Bridge:]
Then somethin' happened when they
Danced to the slow ones
They got this funny look then said
"Ok, kids, it's time for bed"

[Chorus:]
When the needle hit the vinyl
Mama's hair came down
Daddy came unwound
In their own world
Just a boy and girl
Couldn't believe our eyes
How they came alive
When the needle hit the vinyl
