Those Were the Days - The Refreshments

Those were the days J. Arnell

I can still recall like only yesterday

Me and my baby dancin´ the night away

On Saturday nights there were bands playin´ everywhere

They had cool looking guitars and greasy hair

There was hope in the air good news was spread

The war was over, the future bright ahead

Those were the days Those were the days

My face a smilin´ face Those were the days

Those were the days Those were the days

The right time The right place Those were the days

They made the best looking cars the world has seen

There were big blond bombshells on the silver screen

What a great decade fashion at it´s peak

Barbeque-parties in the backyard every week

On the radio you could hear Little Richard yell

Good ol´ times I remember oh so well

Those were the days Those were the days

My face a smilin´ face Those were the days

Those were the days Those were the days

The right time The right place Those were the days

solo

Back then the girls were hot and I was cool

I was smokin´ Ritz, ´n´ drinkin´ rocket fuel

I was too fast to live, too young to die

Now the girls are cold and I don´t even try

Those were the days Those were the days

My face a smilin´ face Those were the days

Those were the days Those were the days

The right time The right place Those were the days

Those were the days Those were the days

My face a smilin´ face Those were the days

Those were the days Those were the days

Those were the days Those were the days

Those were the days Those were the days
