Dolly Parton lyrics : "Those Were The Days (feat. Mary Hopkin and The Opry Gang)"

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 would do

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
For we were young and sure to have our way.
La la la la...

Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

Then the busy years went rushing by us

We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance I'd see you in the tavern
We'd smile at one another and we'd say


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

For we were young and sure to have our way.
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

In the glass I saw a strange reflection
Was that lonely woman 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
For we were young and sure to have our way.

La la la la...
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days


Through the door there came familiar laughter
I saw your face and heard you call my name
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser

For in our hearts the dreams are still the same

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
For we were young and sure to have our way.
La la la la...

Those were the days, oh yes those were the days
