Karaoké Talk About the Good Times Elvis Presley

Mmm well I remember when I was as children

The time the people used to treat the neighbor like a fellow man

And all their singin' and big prayer meetin's

When a man was proud to walk up and shake his neighbors hand

Oh you talk about the good times talk about the good times

Oh if you ever needed help a friend was there

Some good neighbor help lift your burden

Mmm and the simple joys of life a friend would share

Times are harder and the people are changin'

Now most folks couldn't tell you who their neighbors are

All their guns are loaded the front doors are bolted

Ain't this ol' world takin' hate and fear just a little too far

You talk about the good times talk about the good times oh

I wish I could go back to the days I'm speakin' of

When a friend would meet you and a smile would greet you

What this ol' world needs now is a little fashioned love

Mmm my granddaddy

God rest his soul now

Well we had a big long talk together the day he died

Said son this world is full of hate and venom

I can't wait to leave this ol' place and rest on the other side

Oh you talk about the good times talk about the good times

Hey I'm gonna see all the friends

I knew in the good ol' days

We'll have a big hand shakin' and sit and talk together

Sit down by the river Jordan and sing our blues away

Oh you talk about the good times talk about the good times

Hey I'm gonna see all the friends

I knew in the good ol' days

We'll have a big hand shakin' and sit and talk together

Sit down by the river Jordan and sing our blues away
