Let Me Tell You ’Bout Them Good Old Days(response remix to Shawnee Lorraine Wiseman )
[Verse 1] Grandmama’s porch had a quilted step Screen door slapped when the cousins ran in Granddaddy laughed tellin’ stories tall ’Bout the days gone by and the life back then Old cards splayed on the checkered cloth Dominoes lined by the kitchen sink We played freeze tag, hopscotch, hide and seek And we laughed so hard we forgot to think [Pre-Chorus] And I can still hear That long slow tale How the whole room leaned On every detail [Chorus] Them good old days (Let me tell it now) Still live in my bones (Still live in my bones) Them good old days (Them good old days) We’d laugh ’til we moaned We’d laugh ’til we moaned [Verse 2] Granddaddy called out the games we’d play Red Rover, jump rope and kick the can Musical chairs, truth or dare by dusk Then we’d two-step slow with a clappin’ band We did the twist and the mashed potato Electric slide and the old grapevine Little square dance, dosey-do all night Till our feet gave out but our hearts felt fine [Pre-Chorus] And I can still hear That jukebox spin If I close my eyes I’m right back again [Chorus] Them good old days (Let me tell it now) Still live in my bones (Still live in my bones) Them good old days (Them good old days) We’d dance ’round the home We’d dance ’round the home [Bridge] Mac and cheese and greens Sweet corn in a bowl Fried chicken piled high Fed body and soul Cousin Janet tried Bless her tender heart She burned that cornbread Right from the start We just passed our plates With a knowing smile Saying, “Love your cookin’ Been my favorite for a while” [Final Chorus] Them good old days (Let me tell it now) Still live in my bones (Still live in my bones) Them good old days (Them good old days) Round tables and tones Round tables and tones Them good old days (Them good old days) I can taste ’em now (I can taste ’em now) Them good old days (Them good old days) Games played, love grown Games played, love grown
