Dolly Parton – The Greatest Days Of All Lyrics  Share

From Dolly Parton's album: Touch Your Woman

A dirt dobber built its nest
On my only Sunday dress
And the roof leaked in my shoes
And when they dried they were too small
And the rats chewed a great big hole
In my only winter coat
And at night I^,d hear them gnaw
The paper on my bedroom wall
But I still say
Those were the greatest days of all
Some happy and some sad
Some good and some bad
But I still say
Those were the greatest days of all
I used to wait by the garden gate
Where the hummingbirds came ev^,ry day
To kiss the yellow roses
Growing up the garden wall
And in the tall grass I would lie
^,Til ev^,ning shadows brought the night
Thru the window of my room
I^,d hear the whippoorwill^,s sad call
And I still say
[ The Greatest Days Of All lyrics from

Those were the greatest days of all
Some happy and some sad
Some good and some bad
But I still say
Those were the greatest days of all

Now as I make my way
Along the busy city sidewalks
My head arouring from the deafening city sound
You can^,t hear a whipporwill in this noisy city
And tall green grass don^,t grow
Along the sidewalks of this town
And hummingbirds don^,t fly around
These artificial roses
Like they did around the garden wall
And, oh, so often in my mind
I^,ll go back to another time
And I still say
Those were the greatest days of all
I still say
Those were the greatest days of all
