Monday morning it's 6 A.M.
The noise is knockin' me out of my dream
I just want to stay right here in bed
That I gotta get up just seems obcene

And though I'd rather go back to where I was
Back to what I was dreaming of
A simpler world where life was not so hard

Tell me where have the good times gone
Where have the good times gone
It seems like it's been so long
Where have the good times gone
They were here now they're lost without a trace
And my life is like a goddamned disgrace
Its been so long
Tell me where have the good times gone

Runaway train on a one way track
How'd this load get on my back
Another day older it just ain't right
Down on the ground like I lost the fight

And though I'd rather go back to where I've been
Go back and start it all again
I swear that I'd never let it slip away

Tell me where have the good times gone
Where have the good times gone
It seems like it's been so long
Where have the good times gone
They were here now they're lost without a trace
And my life is like a goddamned disgrace
Its been so long
Tell me where have the good times gone

Tell me where have the good times gone
Where have the good times gone
It seems like it's been so long
Where have the good times gone
They were here now they're lost without a trace
And my life is like a goddamned disgrace
Its been so long
Tell me where have the good times gone

And though I'd rather go back to where I was
Back to what I was dreamin' of
A simpler time when life was not so hard

Tell me where have the good times gone
Where have the good times gone
It seems like it's been so long
Where have the good times gone
They were here now they're lost without a trace
And my life is like a goddamned disgrace
Its been so long
Tell me where have the good times gone

Tell me where have the good times gone
Where have the good times gone
It seems like it's been so long
Where have the good times gone
They were here now they're lost without a trace
And my life is like a goddamned disgrace
Its been so long
Tell me where have the good songs gone
