Paroles
I wish a buck was still silver
It was back when the coutry was strong
Back before elvis
And before
The Vietnam war
Came along
Before the beatles yesterday
When a man could still work,
And still would
Is the best of the free life, behind us now
And are the good times really over
For good
I'll be rolling down hill
Like a snowball headed for hell
With no kind of chance
For the flag or the liberty bell
I wish a ford and a chevy
Would still last 10 years
Like they should
Is the best of the free life, behind us now
And are the good times really over
For good
I wish coke was still cola
And 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
And still would
Is the best of the free life
Behind us now
And are the good times really over for good
I'll be rolling downhill like a snowball headed for hell
With no kind of chance for the flag
Or the liberty bell
I wish a ford and a chevy
Would still last 10 years
Like they should
Is the best of the free life, behind us now
And are the good times really over
For good
Stop rolling down hill like a snowball headed for hell
Stand up for the flag and lets all ring the liberty bell
Let's make a ford and a chevy
That will still last 10 years
Like they should
Because the best of the free life is still yet to come
And the good times aint over for good
