When I think back on all the crap Ive learned in highschool
Its a wonder I can think at all
Though my lack of education hasnt hurt me much
I can read the writings on the walls

Chorus:
Kodachrome, they give us those nice bright colours
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the worlds a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a nikon camera, I love to take a photograph
So mama dont take my kodachrome away

If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
Brought em all together for one night
I know theyd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks better in black and white

Chorus

Mama dont take my kodachrome away, mama dont take my kodachrome away
Mama dont take my kodachrome away

Mama dont take my kodachrome, mama dont take my kodachrome
Mama dont take my kodachrome away
Mama dont take my kodachrome and leave your boy so far from home
Mama dont take my kodachrome away
Mama dont take my kodachrome, whew whew, mama dont take my kodachrome away
