Talk About The Good Times

(Jerry Reed Hubbard)

Well I remember when I was just children ????
The time the people used to treat the neighbour like a fellow man
An' all their singin' and big prayer meetin's
When a man was proud to walk up and shake his neighbours hand

Oh you talk about the good times, (talk about the good times)
Talk about the good times (talk about the good times)
Oh if you ever needed help a friend was there
Some good neighbour (talk about the good times)
Help lift your burden (talk about the good times)
Mmmm, 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 neighbours 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

Oh you talk about the good times, (talk about the good times)
Talk about the good times (talk about the good times)
I wish I could go back to the days I'm speakin of
When a friend would meet you (talk about the good times)
And a smile would greet you (talk about the good times)
What this ol' world needs now is a little old fashioned love

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
An' 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
Talk about the good times (talk about the good times)
I'm gonna see all the friends I knew in the good ol' days
We'll have a big hand shakin' (talk about the good times)
An' sit and talk together (talk about the good times)
Sit down by the river Jordan and sing our blues away

* Repeat
