And all these sad yound men
paraiding through their lives
the girls that they have loved have now
become expensive wifes
They think they know it all
and in some ways they do
they're reaching out for better times
if they only knew
Refr.: These are the good old days
this is the best time of my life
the best I've ever known
and it won't ever be the same again
These are the good old days
and when my clothes are out of style
and life is slowing down
I'll know what I have done
While all this sad young men
go marchin' up to walk
the old men shake their heads and say
we've seen it all before
But how are they to know
lessons take so long
and by the time they found the answer
life is almost gone (repeat refrain)
