Bobby Bare Lyrics for Song: All the Good Times Are Past and Gone
 Lyrics for Album: Bird Named Yesterday / Talk Me Some Sense [Omni] [2006]
 
 
 
 29823>(Howard Hausey)
 
 
 
 All the good times are past and gone
 
 All the good times are past and gone
 
 All the good times are past and gone
 
 What's left for a poor boy to do?
 
 
 
 I can still see my mama bend over that ol' washpot
 
 And it's so doggone cold you could nearly freeze on the spot
 
 My pa eatin' them flapjacks and yellin' for more
 
 And the kids makin' tracks across mama's clean floor.
 
 
 
 But all them good times are past and gone now
 
 All the good times are gone.
 
 
 
 Well, you could look for miles down a winding railroad track
 
 And see train a leavin' and hear one comin' back
 
 And with a cloud of blue up over your head
 
 It's like something from a storybook that you once read.
 
 
 
 But all them good times are past and gone
 
 Now all the good times are gone
 
 All the good times are past and gone
 
 What's left for a poor boy to do?
 
 
 
 And go down on that river when the big boats make their run
 
 And the canepoles grow so thick they block up the sun
 
 Just smell that coffee boilin' in an old tin can
 
 And that hot grease poppin' in the fryin' pan.
 
 
 
 But all them good times are past and gone
 
 Now all them good times are gone
 
 All the good times are past and gone
 
 What's left for a poor boy to do?...
