Swanson - By Dan'l MclLhenny

I ain’t heard from Swanson 

In a long time... not a word, none 

They used to be my go to TV meal 

Real aluminium trays were all the rave 

Back in them good ‘ol days son 

When Swanson rode the wave as # one 

Yep, you could say prime time, wasn’t prime time  

Until you devoured every bite 

I’d buy ‘em by the stack at the grocery store 

Chicken pot pies and Hungry Man 

It maybe sounds real silly now  

 But then... that meal meant a whole lot more   

I ain’t heard from Swanson 

In a long time... not a word, none 

They used to be my go to TV meal 

Real aluminium trays were all the rave 

Back in them good ‘ol days son 

When Swanson rode the wave as # one 

Heck, I couldn’t wait to stay up late for those 

Black & white and super bright in living color shows 

And some of ‘em were sponsored by Sawnson too 

It was the darndest thing with the oven ring 

 It put us on the run, sayin’... I’ll’ be, dinners already done!  

Then - off for family room for food n fun 

I ain’t heard from Swanson 

In a long time... not a word, none 

They used to be my go to TV meal 

Real aluminium trays were all the rave 

Back in them good ‘ol days son 

When Swanson rode the wave as # one 

They say in life you ought to learn 

To feel the burn and pay taxes as you earn 

And when it comes to trusting in someone 

Trust Swanson every time 

I ain’t heard from Swanson 

In a long time... not a word, none 

They used to be my go to TV meal 

Real aluminium trays were all the rave 

Back in them good ‘ol days son 

When Swanson rode the wave as # one 

I ain’t heard from Swanson 

In a long time... not a word, none 

They used to be my go to TV meal 

Real aluminium trays were all the rave 

Back in them good ‘ol days son 

When Swanson rode the wave as # one
