I'D Like To See Those Days Again

Oh, I’d like to see those days again When our jeans were tight but not outgrown— When there was no TV or internet And you could really be alone. Yes, I’d like to watch a B western Where all the good guys wore those white hats— When humor was funny and not obscene, And congress was not full of rats. I want back our days of innocence When cowboy was not a four-letter word— And we all rode for America’s brand And discouraging words were not heard. And I’d love to see us give respect Once again to the presidency— And there was no need to lock all our doors Or worship cult celebrities. I want to relive those better times When men were honest as their handshake— And criminals didn’t get off scot-free— And lips and bosoms were not fake. Yes, I’d like to see those days again Where heroes rode off into sunsets, And all our stories ended happily And all our lives had no regrets.
