Jeff Dean – Whatever Happened lyrics
We were two young boys, living on the same block.
Captain Kirk was my hero and his was Spock.
We were kids when life was fun.
We had no worries and we carried no guns.

Whatever happened to those old days?
Whatever happened to those old ways?
When all your friends were friends for life.
They all disappeared with Ol' Barney Fife.
Whatever happened, to the good ol' days?

When graduation finally came.
We were on our way it seemed.
Then Uncle Sam he called our names.
And our lives changed.
Now my friend he's not here, he didn't make it back home.
He died there in that jungle, but he did not die alone.
I made it back, it's been thirty years.
And time can't erase all the heartache and tears.
The politicians role the dice.
But they never have to pay the price.

Whatever happened to those old days?
Whatever happened to those old ways?
When all your friends were friends for life.
They all disappeared with Ol' Barney Fife.
Whatever happened, to the good ol' days?

As I kneel down today, to lay a flower on his grave.
I think of his sacrifice.
Hey man he gave his life.
Then I look at all the crime, on our streets today.
I wonder how can these good men die, and things turn
Out this way.

Whatever happened to those old days?
Whatever happened to those old ways?
When all your friends were friends for life.
They all disappeared with Ol' Barney Fife.
Whatever happened, to the good ol' days?

Whatever happened, to the good ol days
