Lyrics

BACK TO THE GOOD OL' DAYS

Way back when, when I was young,
When my life had just begun,
My daddy worked so hard to earn our keep.
That big ol' moon shinin' bright,
The stars would bring him home at night,
I'd hold my momma's hand and fall asleep.

Every Friday night when the kids were down
and the mood was right,
Daddy and his friends would start to play.
On a banjo and an old guitar,
They'd play and sing, "A Fallen Star"
I can hear 'em singin' still today.

Chorus:
And I go back to the good ol' days,
Of beat up trucks and simple ways,
Every time I hear a country song.
And I go back to the good ol' days,
Right where I belong,
Every time I hear a good ol' country song.

When the banjo starts to pickin',
And the guitar starts to play,
And the fiddle reaches right down to my soul.
Well the music picks me up and takes me back to yesterday,
And I sit on down and let the good times roll.

Chorus

Well a song can make me happy,
And a song can make me sad,
But the feeling from a country song's
The best I've ever had.

Chorus
Every time I hear a good ol' country song.
And I go back to the good ol' days.
