II Week 8; The good old days !
First listen to the song while watching the video and re-tell the story told by the video clip.
Then use your hand outs with the lyrics and try to enumerate what "good things" used to happen in the past.
After that compare these things with the modern times.
Artist(Band):The Judds
Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
Sometimes it feels like this worlds gone crazy
Grandpa, take me back to yesterday
When the line between right and wrong
Didn't seem so hazy
(Chorus)
Did lovers really fall in love to stay
And stand beside each other, come what may
Was a promise really something people kept
Not just something they would say
Did families really bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really never go away
Woah oh, grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
Grandpa, everything is changing fast
We call it progress, but I just don't know
And grandpa, Let's wander back into the past
And paint me the picture of long ago
Did lovers really fall in love to stay
And stand beside each other come what may
Was a promise really something people kept
Not just something they would say and then forget
Did families really bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really never go away
Woah oh, grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
Woah oh, grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
Mhmm, mhmm, mhmmm, mhmm, mhmm,
mhmm mhmm
Mhmm, mhmm, mhmmm, mhmm, mhmm,
mhmm mhmm
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?
