| Grandma talks about Kennedy
|
| The way momma talks about Reagan
|
| And daddy talks about Staubach
|
| Like brother talks about Aikman
|
| We don’t remember how we hated, the taste of that first beer
|
| And everything looks better looking in the review mirror
|
| We don’t know till it’s too late, we’re living in the good ole days
|
| In the pictures, ain’t we always having fun?
|
| Oh, when we’re young, we wanna be older
|
| When we’re old, we wanna be cool
|
| We can’t wait to graduate and when we graduate
|
| We just wanna go back to school
|
| Yeah, John, let’s tell 'em how it was
|
| We talked about our first time, like we were super freaks
|
| But how good could it have been cramped in that Pontiac backseat?
|
| Yeah, we’re always talkin' 'bout the thrill of yesterday
|
| And that just means tomorrow, we’ll be talking 'bout today
|
| We don’t know till it’s too late, we’re living in the good ole days
|
| In the pictures, ain’t we always having fun?
|
| When we’re young, we wanna be older
|
| When we’re old, we wanna be cool
|
| We can’t wait to graduate and when we graduate
|
| We just wanna go back to school, yeah
|
| When you’re raised on reruns, the past is where it’s at
|
| We can’t see the forest if we’re always looking back
|
| We don’t know till it’s too late, we’re living in the good ole days
|
| In the pictures, ain’t we always having fun?
|
| When we’re young, we wanna be older
|
| When we’re old, we wanna be cool
|
| We can’t wait to graduate
|
| We just wanna go back
|
| Guess some day we’re all gonna say
|
| Yeah, these were the good ole days
|
| Hey, some day we’re all gonna say
|
| Hey, these were the good ole days
|
| That’s right
|
| Good ole days, good ole days, good ole days
|
| These were the good ole days
|
| Good ole days
|
| Ah, it’s good, hoo-ah |
