Текст песни The Good Old Days - John Paul White

There's something going down
In this simple place I grew up in
Boots are on the ground
Singing, "Happy days are here again"

There's something in the air
The deaf can hear, the blind can see
Nostalgia everywhere
Saying, "Let's get back to how it used to be"

Before we head down that road
Tell me something I don't know

Oh, what's so good about the good old days?
Yeah, what's so good about the good old days?

It's taken oh so long
For the world to start to understand
The true and equal worth
Of every woman and every man

We've got so very far to go
So tell me something I don't know

Oh, what's so good about the good old days?
Yeah, what's so good about the good old days?

There's something going down
In this simple place I grew up in
It's burning to the ground
And it will never be the same again

The past is ash and dust
Our best days are in front of us

Oh, what's so good about the good old days?
Yeah, what's so good about the good old days?
Tell me, what's so good about the good old days?
Yeah, what's so good about the good old days?
