Lyrics
I Miss Those Days
By Randy Bishop (ASCAP)
©2018, Rokit Music
A two-bedroom house
On a red brick street
Not much money
But enough to eat
Four of us called that little place home
Mom and dad
Bobby and me
Were as close as any
Family could be
And none of us ever felt alone
CHORUS:
I miss those days
I miss those days
When all I ever had to do was play (chorus 2 & 3: When all WE ever had to do was play)
Oh, I miss those days
V2
Just one nickel
At the grocery store
Would buy penny candy
So I'd have more
To share a couple of pieces with my friends
Then we'd play in the woods
And the swimmin' hole
Go swing on the schoolyard
Shimmy up the poles
And none of us ever felt alone
BRIDGE:
Ragged jeans and sweaty shirts
Faces covered all in dirt
Were how we spent the best of summer days
Friendly games of touch football
Till we'd hear my dad call
And tell us to get home out of the rain
