I was listening to net radio when they played a song with interesting lyrics.It seems that Ronnie Dawson recorded as "Ronnie Dee" in his early days. His 1958 song, "Action Packed," featured the following lyrics: If I ever strike it rich, and that's for sure, I'm not gonna buy a Cadillac, not any more, I'm gonna buy me one of them rocket ships, Something that'll take me there and back Do you hear me? I said, "Take me there and back." Talking about using a rocket ship to go "there and back," three years before Kennedy's Urgent National Needs speech! | |
