Oh sometimes I think back to when I was younger,
Life was so much simpler then.
Dad would be out with the guys,
Getting a burger and fries,
Or maybe going bowling again.
Oh, and mom would be fixing something in the kitchen,
A casserole for a church carry-in,
And I'd spend the weekend hanging out with my friends,
Wandering round town
And going into stores on a whim.
Those were the good old days.
Those were the good old days.
The weeks go by, and the memory fades.
But those were the good old days.
I can still recall, my favorite mall,
The one with the big grocery store
Oh, they hired a man, just to, shake your hand,
And say "Howdy" when you walked in the door.
The produce was nice, always was a fair price,
It's such a shame that they closed down that mall.
Oh I don't know when they'll ever open again.
Maybe next year in the fall?
Let me tell ya now:
Those were the good old days.
Those were the good old days.
The months come and go, and the memory fades.
But those were the good old days.
Do you remember Christy Anne?
She was my high school romance.
She had a pretty smile, and she held my hand,
So I took her to the homecoming dance.
But then halfway through the night I left her high and dry.
I left the dance with her former best friend,
And her open-mouthed stare
Became a withering glare,
But I'd still do it over again.
I tell ya buddy,
Those were the good old days.
Those were the good old days.
The years pass away, and the memory fades.
But those were the good old days.
Those were the good old days
Those were the good old days
My old life is gone, and the memory fades,
But those were the good old days
