Carry Me Back
by: The Statler BrothersCarry me back Lord while I still got the time
Is Jimmy through serving is Hitch with Uncle Sam
Do the kids still spend Saturday nights driving round Hamburger Dance
Did Jackie ever make it to the streets of Hollywood
And Bobby I'd love to see him again and I would if I could
Carry me back and make me feel at home
Let me cling to those mem'ries that won't let me alone
Where it was always summer and she was always kind
Carry me back Lord while I still got the time
[ strings ]
Does the preacher still visit when some poor so gets down
Do the stores still stay open on Friday nights downtown
It's Jo Ann still as pretty as when she wore my high school ring
When you see her tell her I said July 1959 she'll know what I mean
Carry me back...
Carry me back Lord while I still got the time
