"Good Ol' Nights" lyrics

"Good Ol' Nights"

People sit around and they talk and talk
How their dreams all ended too soon
Guess they never hung out under the stars
Howlin' at the moon

I guess we're as different as night and day
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

They wanna go back to when a Cadillac
Didn't look like a Chevrolet
It meant 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
Talk about the times when the times were right
You can keep the good ol' days I'll take the good ol' nights
You can keep the good ol' days I'll take the good ol' nights
