Grandpa
(Tell Me 'Bout The Good Old Days)

Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days 
Sometimes it feels like this world's gone crazy 
And Grandpa, take me back to yesterday 
When the line between right and wrong 
Didn't seem so hazy 

Did lovers really fall in love to stay 
And stand beside each other, come what may?
Was a promise really something people kept 
Not just something they would say?
Did families really bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really never go away?
Oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days 

Grandpa, everything is changing fast 
We call it progress, but I just don't know 
And Grandpa, let's wander back into the past 
And paint me the picture of long ago 

Did lovers really fall in love to stay 
And stand beside each other, come what may?
Was a promise really something people kept 
Not just something they would say?
Did families really bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really never go away?
Oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days 
Oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
