Из альбома: Country Super Hits

Wish a buck was still silver
It was, back when the country was strong
Back before Elvis; before the Vietnam war came along
Before The Beatles and "Yesterday",
When a man could still work, and still would
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?
Are we rolling down hill like a snowball headed for hell?
With no kind of chance for the Flag or the Liberty bell
Wish a Ford and a Chevy,
Could still last ten years, like they should
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?

I wish coke was still cola,
And a joint was a bad place to be
And it was back before Nixon lied to us all on TV
Before microwave ovens,
When a girl still cooked and chopped wood
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?

Are we rolling down hill like a snowball headed for hell?
With no kind of chance for the Flag or the Liberty bell
Wish a Ford and a Chevy,
Could still last ten years, like they should
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?

One more time:

Stop rolling down hill like a snowball headed for hell?
Stand up for the Flag and let's all ring the Liberty bell
Let's make a Ford and a Chevy,
Still last ten years, like they should
'Cos the best of the free life is still yet to come,
The good times ain't over for good?

Let's sing it again

Stop rolling down hill like a snowball headed for hell?
Stand up for the Flag and let's all ring the Liberty bell
Let's make a Ford and a Chevy,
That'll still last ten years, like they should
'Cos the best of the free life is still yet to come,
An' the good times ain't over for good?
