Randy Travis - Are The Good Times Really Over lyrics

rate me

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 & yesterday when a man could still work & still would

Is the best of the free life behind us now

& are the good times really ova for good

Are we rollin' downhill like a snowball headed for hell

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

I wish a Ford or a Chevy would still last ten years like they should

Is the best of the free life behind us now

& are the good times really ova for good

I wish Coke was still cola & 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 & still would

Is the best of the free life behind us now

& are the good times really ova for good

Stop rollin' downhill like a snowball headed for hell

Standup for the flag & let's all ring the liberty bell

Let's make a Ford & a Chevy that'll still last ten years like they should

The best of the free life is still yet to come

& the good times ain't really ova for good
