The Good Old Days

Climbing trees in the breeze,                                                                                   it was fun for you and me.                                                                  
 
Skating round and round,                                                                                                                                           we would go all over town.                                                     

Dressing up to what we wanted to be,                                                                                                               your costume was a bumble bee.                                                     
 
Playing with dolls by day and night,                                                                                                                                                          we dressed them up just right.                                                  

Doggy and I loved to play ball,                                                                                                                                  we would play before I went to the mall.                                                

Sleeping over and watching sci-fi TV,                                                                                         made us want to pee                                                                    

The good old days where did you go,                                                                                                 I want you back now not tomorrow.
