GBrenda and Eddie were the popular steadies
And the Dking and the queen of the promD C
GRiding around with the G/Bcar top down and the Cradio on

Surely AmBrenda and Am/BEddie would Calways know Dhow to surGvive
Oh G/Foh oh oG/Eh oh ohD oh oh oh
GOh oh oG/Fh oh ohG/E oh oh Doh oh oh
GBrenda and Eddy were still going steady in the Dsummer of seventy five D C
GWhen they decided the G/Bmarriage would be at the Cend of July
GEveryone said they were Dcrazy D C

Oh but tAmhere we were wAm/Baving BCrenda and EDddie goodbGye
Oh G/Foh oh oG/Eh oh ohD
Well they gCot an apartment with deep pile carpet
And a Dcouple of paintings from GSears
A Cbig waterbed that they bought with the bread
They had Dsaved for a couple of Gyears
They Cstarted to fight when the money got tight
And they Djust didn't count on the Emtears woh oAmh woh oh yeah rock n roll

Well they lCived for a while in a very nice style
But it's Dalways the same in the endG
They Cgot a divorce as a matter of course
And they Dparted the closest of friendsG
Then the Cking and the queen went back to the green
But you can Dnever go back there aEmgain oh oAmh oh ohD
GBrenda and Eddie had had it already by the Dsummer of seventy fiveD C
From the Ghigh to the low to the G/Bend of the show
For the Crest of their lives
They Gcouldn't go back to the DgreasersD C
The Gbest they could do was pick Cup their pieces
