Those Were The Days

Once upon a time there was a tavern

Where we used to raise a glass or two

Remember how we laughed away the hours

And dreamed of all the great things we could do

Hey hey

Those were the days my friend

We thought they'd never end

We'd sing and dance forever and a day

We'd live the life we choose

We'd fight and never lose

Cause we were young and sure to have our way

Those were the days my friend

We thought they'd never end

We'd sing and dance forever and a day

We'd live the life we choose

We'd fight and never lose

Those were the days

Oh yes those were the days

Once upon a time there was a tavern

Where we used to raise a glass or two

Remember how we laughed away the hours

Ha ha ha and dream of all the great things we could do

Then the busy years were rushing by us

We lost the staring oceans on the way

If by chance I'd see you in the tavern

We'd smile at one another and we'd say alright

Those were the days my friend

We thought they'd never end

We'd sing and dance forever and a day

We'd live the life we choose

We'd fight and never lose

Cause we were young and sure to have our way

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la

Those were the days oh yes those were the days

Just tonight I stood before the tavern

Nothing seemed the way it used to be

And in the glass I saw a strange reflection

Was that lonely fellow really me

Those were the days my friend

We thought they'd never end

We'd sing and dance forever

And a day we'd live the life we choose

We'd fight and never lose

Those were the days oh yes

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la

La la la la la

'cause we're the best come on let me hear it

La la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la hey

La la la la la la la la la la la la

Those were the days oh yes those were sing

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la

Give it all you got

La la la la la la la la la la la la

Those were the days oh yes those were the days

Those were the days oh yes

Those were the days one more time

Those were the days oh yes those were the days
