It's so hard to see you here
in this faraway room,
so I wrote you a letter.
You may never read it,
it ain't like you need it
Whatever you do,
don't throw it away, dear you
I know, hearts grow,
impassive ground,
like stone, we roll apart
Hope it ain't too late to be
you and me friends,
in spite of myself
Sincerely, yours to be
I stretched out these words
And folded this paper in thirds
And threw it away
It took quite a few times for me
to finally find what I wanted to say
Dear you, I know hearts grow
In a past so dry, like stone,
we've grown apart
Hope it ain't too late
to be you and me friends
In spite of myself,
sincerely yours to the
end
Dear you, dear you,
I know, hearts grow
El Paso dries like stone,
we broke apart
Hope it ain't too late to be
you and me friends
In spite of myself,
sincerely yours to blame
What? He's so stupid.
Here we go.
You know they can hear you.
Yeah. Okay. I don't care.
Take 49. One, two,
One, three, four.
after
working all day long
And they see a bunch
of bad news on them
They make it sound like
The good life has up and gone
They wait and that gets me down
I believe these are still
The good old days
Yeah, these are still
The good old days
No matter what the teachers
The neighbors old preachers say
And I don't have to long for yesterday,
no Lord
For these are still the good old days
And I can still go out side
And find me an old shade tree
And I still got down the wedding line
in the middle of Little Pond Creek
And I could catch an antelope,
catch a cat,
either one would be okay
And that proves me right
I believe these are still
the good old days
Yeah, these are still
the good old days
No matter what the teachers,
the neighbors, or the preachers say
And I don't have to long for yesterday,
no, Lord
Those days are still the good old days
Yeah, these are still the good old days
No matter what the teachers, neighbors,
or the preachers say
And I don't have to long for yesterday
Oh Lord, those days are still good old days
Oh, I can still catch all of
the brave's game
Yeah, these are still good old days
It's so long
