Where Does the Good Times Go

Osborne Brothers · Osborne Brothers 2 (1968-1974) [Bear Family] [1995]

(Buck Owens)



Arms that used to hold me tight

Eyes that shone with love so bright

Now have changed my days to night

Where does the good times go?



Where does the good times go

Where does the river flow

Where does the north wind blow

Where does the good times go?



--- Instrumental ---



Lips that used to burn with love

Now are cold beneath my touch

Still I love you, oh, so much

Where does the good times go?



Where does the good times go

Where does the river flow

Where does the north wind blow

Where does the good times go?



--- Instrumental ---



Where does the good times go

Where does the river flow

Where does the north wind blow

Where does the good times go?



Where does the good times go?...
