There's a crazy little shack beyond the tracks And ev'rybody calls it the sugar shack Well, it's just a coffeehouse and it's made out of wood Expresso coffee tastes mighty good That's not the reason why I've got to get back To that sugar shack, whoa baby To that sugar shack.
There's this cute little girlie, she's a'workin' there A black leotard and her feet are bare I'm gonna drink a lotta coffee, spend a little cash Make that girl love me when I put on some trash You can understand why I've got to get back To that sugar shack, whoa baby To that sugar shack, yeah honey To that sugar shack, whoa yes To that sugar shack.
Now that sugar shack queen is a'married to me, yeah yeah We just sit around and dream of those old memories Ah, but one of these days I'm gonna lay down tracks In the direction of that sugar shack Just me and her yes we're gonna go back To that sugar shack, Whoa uh ohT o that sugar shack, yeah honey To our sugar shack

5. John F Kennedy
John F Kennedy is one of America’s greatest Presidents. He was America’s first Catholic President. He gave an amazing speech, and his call for Americans to serve their country has remained an inspiring and memorable appeal. He approached the Cuban Missile Crisis very well. Sadly, on November 22, He was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald. Many Americans regarded him as a great president that is beloved by many citizens. He will be surely missed.

6. The Beverly Hillbillies

The Beverly Hillbilles is a new commedy show. It is about a family who moved to beverly hills, California after striking oil on their land. It is #1 currently on the Nielson Rating. The show stars Buddy Ebsen, Irene Ryan, Donna Douglas, and Max Baer, Jr. After watching the show, I would say it’s a very funny show and it’s great and fun to watch.

7. Being a Teenager in 1963
Being a teenager in 1963 would’ve been much different than today. The world was much more freer. You could walk the streets at night and very seldom had any trouble. Almost ot the dances had a name. People wore miniskirts and short shorts. Most families had 2 parents. A lot of the mothers did not work. For most teenagers, the Beatles would be an up—and-coming band that everyone expects to be popular. There was a lot of racial hatred. If you lived in the South, you would see lots or Civil Rights movement led by Martin Luther King Jr. Gasoline was a lot more cheaper because in 1963, it was only 29 cents. Other things such as a loaf of bread was a lot cheaper too because it cost only 22 cents at the time. The assassination of John F Kennedy would most likely shock you if you were interested in politics. It was also a year of where new things started. Zip codes were introduced in Some new movies are Cleopatra and To Kill a Mockingbird.
