I can still remember
|
When we were much younger
|
Skies were blue and fields were green
|
oh the air's so clean
|
|
Animals ran wild and free
|
birds could sing in harmony
|
flowers would grow all around
|
and Mother Earth was sound
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
In those good good old days
|
In those good good old days
|
In those good good old days
|
That used to be
|
|
Where did all the green fields go
|
And flowers now that just won't grow
|
Animals are dying out
|
That lives north and south
|
|
They found out how to crack the skies
|
Casting shadows on our eyes
|
Telling us just how to live
|
And when to die
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
But those good good old days
|
yes those good good old days
|
In those good good old days
|
That used to be
|
|
Wasting oil upon the sea
|
That used to be so fresh and free
|
Poisoned gases everywhere
|
Stifling the air
|
|
And many children lose their way
|
By leaders of confusion
|
And leave them with the price to pay
|
Of hastened evolution
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
But those good good old days
|
In those good good old days
|
yes those good good old days
|
That used to be
|
|
Talking a€?bout those good old days
|
Talking a€?bout those good old good old days
|
Don't you remember
|
Try to remember
|
I'm sure you know
|
I'm sure you know
|
|

Those Good, Good Old Days
