The Good Ol’ Nights Songtext
von Waylon Jennings & Willie Nelson

People sit around and they talk and talk
How their dreams all ended too soon
Guess they never hung out under the stars
Howling at the moon
I guess we′re as different as nine and eight
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
