Grandpa (Tell Me ‘Bout The Good Old Days) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Grandpa
Tell me 'bout the good old days
Sometimes it feels like
This ol' world's 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 somethin' people kept
Not just somethin' they would say?
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?
Woah, Grandpa
Tell me 'bout the good old days

[Verse 2]
Oh, and Grandpa
Evеrything is changin' fast
We call it progress
But I just don't know
Oh, and Grandpa
Let's wondеr back into the past
And paint me the picture
Of long ago
[Chorus]
Did lovers really fall in love to stay
Stand beside each other come what may?
Was a promise really somethin' people kept
Not just somethin' they would say and then forget?
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?
Woah, Grandpa
Tell me 'bout the good old days
Woah, Grandpa
Tell me 'bout the good old days

[Outro]
Woah, Grandpa
Tell me 'bout the good old days

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
