Kenny Rogers - Twenty Years Ago

Twenty Years Ago
Kenny Rogers

It`s been a long time since I walked
Through this old town
You could find me there every Friday night
But oh how the memories start to flow
And there`s the old movie house
They finally closed it down
Twenty years ago.

I worked the counter at the drugstore down the street
All my friends would meet
On Saturday mornings that`s where
You`d be surprised to know what a dime would buy
But nobody`s left there I would know
Twenty years ago.

All my memories from those days come gather round me
It almost seems like yesterday
What I`d give if they could take me back in time
Where do the good times go?
Life was so much easier twenty years ago.

I guess I should stop by Mr. Johnson`s hardware store
His only son was my friend Joe
But he joined the army back in 1964
How could we know he would never come back
Twenty years ago...
