Lyrics
she said that the good old days
sweetheart on parade
That awful noise, who were doin the best they could., i do love you
and the people cheer
would you look at her
There was a story in the san francisco chronicle that i forgot to save, sweetheart on parade
While i saw grown men break right down and cry, when they listened to the water Country, when a century was born and a century had died
But he said before i go i ve got to drive her one more time., mother country John, but he said before i go i ve got to drive her one more time.
They just stood there and no one said a thing, he knew he was goin blind, the old lady replied
When they listened to the water, while i saw grown men break right down and cry
would you look at her
When a century was born and a century had died, and he s sittin straight and proud, as he s singing with his class of nineteen-two
He knew he was goin blind, i do love you, and here they come
It was during the time of that terrible flood, would you look at her
and the people cheer
Pretty up and walkin good, when they listened to the water, would you look at her
When they listened to the water, as he s singing with his class of nineteen-two, and he s sittin straight and proud
stuart in the wagon right behind
Stuart in the wagon right behind, she never looked better or finer than today
So people came from miles around, the old campaigner
and the people cheer
And then they just put away the dreams that belonged to little boys, i do love you John, while i saw grown men break right down and cry
pretty up and walkin good
who stood knee deep in the johnstown mud
And here they come, whatever happened to those faces in the old photographs
she never looked better or finer than today
But it was about a lady who lived in the good ol days, the sun is going down for mister bouie
She never looked better or finer than today, it was just a little while later
and he owned some of the finest horses that i think i ve ever seen
He knew he was goin blind, but he said before i go i ve got to drive her one more time.
there was just a lot of people
I knew a man named e.a, when a century was born and a century had died Country, and he owned some of the finest horses that i think i ve ever seen
Who stood knee deep in the johnstown mud, mother country, mother country
Would you look at her, when a century was born and a century had died, and they stood around the ring
And he s drivin her stone blind, it was during the time of that terrible flood John, and they re opening up the gates back there
Who stood knee deep in the johnstown mud, but no one said a word Stewart, he knew he was goin blind
And then they just put away the dreams that belonged to little boys, i knew a man named e.a
They just stood there and no one said a thing, and here they come
And here they come, she was champion Mother, and then the lady said that they did it
Whatever happened to those faces in the old photographs, stuart in the wagon right behind
The old lady replied, whatever happened to those faces in the old photographs
And the people cheer, and he called her sweetheart on parade Country, and then they just put away the dreams that belonged to little boys
And he s drivin her stone blind, when a century was born and a century had died
And you know, would you look at her
She said that the good old days, so people came from miles around
And he called her sweetheart on parade, as he s singing with his class of nineteen-two, that awful noise
