Long long ago
Long long ago
Long long ago
Well they say it was better in oh so many ways
Long long ago, long ago
They couldn't go to a movie show,
Listen to the radio, go for a ride in a car
And on a very cold and wintery night
They couldn't sit and watch a TV fight
And when the summer came
They will have to take a dame all bundled up to the beach
They didn't know a girl could look so cute
In a bikini suit
Oh how they sing of the good, good old days
Long long ago
Long long ago
They couldn't swing in the good old days
Long long ago, long ago
{At same time}
They couldn't go to a movie show,
Listen to the radio, go for a ride in a car
But they still talk of the good, good old days
And on a very cold and wintery night
Long long ago
They couldn't sit and watch a TV fight
Long long ago
So when people say to me "nothings like it used to be"
I don't believe that it's so
They say it was better in so many ways
They didn't have so much to brag about
Long long ago, long ago
Long long ago
Long long ago
Long long ago
