People sit around and they talk and talk
How their dreams all ended too soon
Guess they never hung out under the stars
Howling at the moon
I guess we`re as different as nine and eight
I see it in a different light
I don`t think much about the good ol` days
Just about the good ol` nights
Talk about the good times
Talk about the times when the times were right
You can keep the good ol` days I`ll take the good ol` nights
[ guitar ]
They wanna go back to when a Cadillac
Didn`t look like a Chevrolet
It mean`t a lot to them but not a thing to me
I never owned one anyway
But a good looking woman and an old guitar
With both of them tuned just right
Well I don`t think much about the good ol` days
Just about the good ol` nights
Talk about the good times...
You can keep the good ol` days I`ll take the good ol` nights
