Twenty Years Ago

It's been a long time Since I walked through this old town Oh, how the memories start to flow There's the old movie house They finally closed it down You could find him there every Friday night Twenty years ago He worked the counter At the drugstore down the street But nobody's left there he would know On Saturday mornings That's where all our friends would meet You'd be surprised what a dime could buy Twenty years ago All my memories From those days come gather 'round me What I'd give if they could take me back in time Oh, it almost seems like yesterday Where do the good times go? Life was so much easier Twenty years ago I guess I should stop by Mr. Johnson's hardware store His only son was my friend Joe He joined the army back in 1964 How could we know he would never come back Twenty years ago? All my memories From those days come gather 'round me What I'd give if they would take me back in time Oh, it almost seems like yesterday Where do the good times go? Life was so much easier Twenty years ago Life was so much easier Twenty years ago
