Lyrics of Grandpa (Tell Me 'Bout the Good Old Days) by The Isaacs
verse
Grandpa
Tell me 'bout the good old days
Sometimes it feels like
This world's gone crazy
verse
And Grandpa
Take me back to yesterday
Where the line between right and wrong
Didn't seem so hazy
chorus
Did lovers really fall in love to stay?
Stand beside each other come what may
Was a promise really something people kept?
Not just something they would say, and then forget
chorus
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?
Whoa-oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
verse
Grandpa
Everything is changing fast
We call it progress
But I just don't know
verse
And Grandpa
Let's wander back into the past
And paint me a picture
Of long ago
chorus
Did lovers really fall in love to stay?
Stand beside each other come what may
Was a promise really something people kept?
Not just something they would say, and then forget
chorus
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?
Whoa-oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
Whoa-oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
