Lyrics

  1. Let’s take a look in mem’ry’s book
    Back to the days of yore
    Back to the school, old swimmin’ pool
    We’ll just be kids once more
    Let’s wander back where we used to sit and dream
    Down by the old mill stream

Chorus
Where are the days of long ago?
Those days are over, those days are over, all over
Where is the barefoot bashful beau?
The one who wrote “I love you so” Oh!
Sweet childhood days so dear to you and me
Sweet wildwood ways are just a memory
Gee! but it makes me sad some how
Those days are over, over now

  1. Let’s climb the hill down by the mill
    Pile on the old bob sled
    Coasting we’ll go, roll in the snow
    Until our cheeks grow red
    Oh for the days of the olden golden past
    They were too good to last
