I saw some drastic changes
that affected me and you.
The whole world was different,
Everything was done by electric machines.
I dreamed I had a sweetheart,
Took common court and pleasure
Modern science had ruined us
and I cried out many times
Take me back to the good old days
I love those old -fashioned ways
They've gone too far with
Now kissing wasn't legal,
it was just a waste of time
she would make familiar sounds like this
for the old -time lover's kiss
Then finally we got married,
but I had a longer spouse
She said, let's get some little feet
I liked her sly suggestion,
life might get hold of real
that it was all done with a pill
I said, take me back to the good old days
I love those old -fashioned ways
They've gone too far with
Take me back to the good old days
I was dreamin' and I'm glad I'm
livin' in the good old days you
