Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days Sometimes it feels like this worlds gone crazy Grandpa, take me back to yesterday When the line between right and wrong Didn't seem so hazy (chorus) Did lovers really fall in love to stay And stand beside each other, come what may Was a promise really something people kept Not just something they would say Did families really bow their heads to pray Did daddies really never go away Oh, grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days Grandpa, everything is changing fast
We call it progress, but i just don't know And grandpa, let's wander back into the past And paint me the picture of long ago (repeat chorus) Did lovers really fall in love to stay And stand beside each other come what may Was a promise really something people kept Not just something they would say and then forget Did families really bow their heads to pray Did daddies really never go away Oh, grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days Oh, grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
