Are the Good Times Really Over

In the style of

Merle Haggard

Lyrics

i wish a buck
was still silver

it was back
when the country was strong

back before elvis
before the vietnam war
came along

before the beatles
and yesterday

when a man
could still work still would

the best of the free life
behind us now

are the good times
really over for good?

are we rolling down hill
like a snowball
headed for hell?

with no kind of chance
for the flag or the liberty bell

wish a ford and a chevy
could still last ten years
like they should

is the best of the free life
behind us now?

are the good times
really over for good?

i wish coke
was still cola

and a joint
was a bad place to be

it was back before nixon
lied to us all on tv

before microwave ovens
when a girl

could still cook
and still would

the best of the free life
behind us now

are the good times
really over for good?

are we rolling down hill
like a snowball
headed for hell?

with no kind of chance
for the flag or the liberty bell

wish a ford and a chevy
could still last ten years
like they should

is the best of the free life
behind us now?

are the good times
really over for good?

stop rolling down hill
like a snowball

headed for hell

stand up for the flag
and let's all ring
the liberty bell

let's make a ford
and a chevy

still last ten years
like they should

the best of the free life
is still yet to come

the good times
ain't over for good
