Sweeties of a 70's Kid

Sweeties of a 70's Kid

 Sherbet Dib Dabs,Sherbet Lemons
Drumstick Lollies,sweetie heaven
 Suck on a Spangle,Refreshers or chews
Some sweets of our childhood,especially for you

 Curly Whirly,a Walnut Whip
A Liquorish stick,for a sherbet dip
 Wine gums a plenty,all different colours
Trips to the dentist,didn't listen to our mothers

 More flavoursome and bigger,our sweets were as kids
Fuelled playtime and fun times
 And the things that we did

Waggon wheels to die for,bigger than our hands
Cough sweets for granddad,always came in cans
 Icecream screwballs with bubblies in the bottom
Ace memories of our childhood,we've never forgot 'em
 Toffo,the best toffee,the flavour so true
A mans gotta chew,what a man's gotta chew

 Peanut shaped candy,with salted nuts in the middle
So much to choose from,when we were little
 Fizzing popping candy,burst in ya mouth
Chewing on a Texan bar,from the Deep South

 So much to choose from,licking my lips
Not forgetting sour favourites,little sherbet pips

 Building sweet memories,of the 70's kid
The flavours and colours,under the sweetie box lid 
 Memories to cherish,those tastes to savour
No E-numbers then,just endless flavour
