Elvis Presley - Talk About The Good Times Lyrics
(words & music by jerry reed hubbard)Well I remember when I was as childrenThe time the people used to treat the neighbor like a fellow manAnd all their singin and big prayer meetinsWhen a man was proud to walk up and shake his neighbors handOh you talk about the good times,Talk about the good timesOh if you ever needed help a friend was thereSome good neighborHelp lift your burdenMmm, and the simple joys of life a friend would shareTimes are harder and the people are changinNow most folks couldnt tell you who their neighbors areAll their guns are loaded, the front doors are boltedAint this ol world takin hate and fear just a little too farOh you talk about the good times,Talk about the good timesI wish I could go back to the days Im speakin ofWhen a friend would meet youAnd a smile would greet youWhat this ol world needs now is a little old fashioned loveMy granddaddy God rest his soul nowWell we had a big long talk together the day he diedSaid son this world is full of hate and venomAn I cant wait to leave this ol place and rest on the other sideOh you talk about the good times, talk about the good timesTalk about the good timesIm gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol daysWell have a big hand shakinAn sit and talk togetherSit down by the river jordan and sing our blues awayOh you talk about the good times, talk about the good timesTalk about the good timesIm gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol daysWell have a big hand shakinAn sit and talk togetherSit down by the river jordan and sing our blues awayOh you talk about the good times, talk about the good timesTalk about the good timesIm gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol daysWell have a big hand shakinAn sit and talk togetherSit down by the river jordan and sing our blues away
