(announcer: And now ladies and gentlemen, Barry Manilow!)
|
|
We're here for a party tonight.
|
The feelings are flowing just right.
|
We've gathered the family and the friends of ABC.
|
We want you to celebrate too
|
so we found a few memories for you
|
from this very evening back to 1953!
|
|
It's a miracle, a silver anniversary miracle come true.
|
Funny and ecstatic or dramatic anniversary show for you!
|
Ozz and Harriet to the Olympics, from DisneyLand to San Fransisco streets.
|
It's a miracle, a tru-blu spectacle, a miracle for you.
|
|
Back 25 seasons ago, we had first started to grow.
|
Make Room for Daddy, The Rifleman and Cheyenne
|
Maverick mosied along, Sinatra and Bing sing their song.
|
Dick Clark brought the Bandstand, and remember Rin-Tin-Tin?
|
|
It's a miracle, a silver anniversary miracle come true.
|
Boxing bouts to ballgames, winning all games, the old shows and brand new.
|
Laverne and Shirley to The Lone Ranger, and from me to Lawrence Welk!
|
It's a miracle, a tru-blu spectacle, a miracle for you.
|
|
From the Wide World of Sports in the sixties, to watching them behind closed doors and cheer!
|
From My Three Sons to Barney Miller, Bert Lange Menagerie to Frish,
|
from Wyatt Earp to Marcus Welby, from The Untouchables to the Fonz,
|
from Charlie's Angels to John Denver, from Folks to Scooby Darlin Doo,
|
from Joe McCarthy to Joe Kennedy, from How The West Was Won to Roots!
|
|
Hey
|
It's a miracle, a silver anniversary night for you and me.
|
It's a miracle, a tru-blu spectacle tonight, tonight on ABC!
