Elvis Presley - Talk About The Good Times lyrics

Your rating:

Well I remember when I was as children 
The time the people used to treat
the neighbor like a fellow man
And all their singin` and big prayer meetin`s
When a man was proud to walk up
and shake his neighbors hand

Oh you talk about the good times, 
Talk about the good times
Oh if you ever needed help a friend was there
Some good neighbor 
Help lift your burden 
Mmm, and the simple joys
of life a friend would share

Times are harder and the people are changin` Now most folks couldn`t tell you who their neighbors are All their guns are loaded, the front doors are bolted Ain`t this ol` world takin` hate and fear just a little too far Oh you talk about the good times, Talk about the good times I wish I could go back to the days I`m speakin of When a friend would meet you And a smile would greet you What this ol` world needs now is a little old fashioned love My granddaddy God rest his soul now Well we had a big long talk together the day he died Said son this world is full of hate and venom An` I can`t wait to leave this ol` place and rest on the other side Oh you talk about the good times, talk about the good times Talk about the good times I`m gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol` days We`ll have a big hand shakin` An` sit and talk together Sit down by the river Jordan and sing our blues away Oh you talk about the good times, talk about the good times Talk about the good times I`m gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol` days We`ll have a big hand shakin` An` sit and talk together Sit down by the river Jordan and sing our blues away Oh you talk about the good times, talk about the good times Talk about the good times I`m gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol` days We`ll have a big hand shakin` An` sit and talk together Sit down by the river Jordan and sing our blues away
