I wish a buck was still silver, and it was back when the country was strong,
G7 C
Back before Elvis, and before the Vietnam war came along,
C F
Before the Beatles and yesterday, when a man could still work, and still would,
F G7
is the best of the free life behind us now,
G7 C
and Are The Good Times Really Over For Good.
C F
Are we rollin' downhill like a snowball headed for hell.
G C
With no kind of chance for the flag or the liberty bell.
C F
I wish a Ford or a Chevy, would still last ten years like they should.
F G7
Is the best of the free life behind us now,
G7 C
And Are The Good Times Really Over For Good.
C F
I wish Coke was still cola, and a joint was a bad place to be.
G7 C
It was back before Nixon lied to us all on TV.
C F
Before Microwave ovens, when a girl could still cook, and still would,
F G7
Is the best of the free life behind us now,
G7 C
and Are The Good Times Really Over For Good.
C F
Stop rollin' downhill like a snowball headed for hell.
G C
Standup for the flag, and let's all ring the liberty bell.
C F
Let's make a Ford and a Chevy that'll still last ten years like they should.
F G7
The best of the free life is still yet to come,
G7 C
