Brian nailed it in one!
Chicago's "Old Days" was the one I was thinking of.
"Old days
Good times I remember
Fun days
Filled with simple pleasures
Drive-in movies
Comic books and blue jeans
Howdy doody
Baseball cards and birthdays
Take me back
To a world gone away
Memories
Seem like yesterday..."
But "The Angel" by the Boss is equally a winner:
"The angel rides with hunchback children
Poison oozing from his engine
Wieldin' love as a lethal weapon
On his way to hubcap heaven
Baseball cards poked in his spokes
His boots in oil, he's patiently soaked
The roadside attendant nervously jokes
As the angel's tires strokes his precious pavement..."
Apart from baseball-themed novelty stuff like "Willie, Mickey and the Duke" (which doesn't actually mention cards specifically) are there others?
