Statler Brothers Lyrics

Carry Me Back Lyrics
(Don Reid - Harold Reid)

Carry me back Lord
While I still got the time.
Is Jimmy through serving
His 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.

--- Instrumental ---

Does the preacher still visit
When some poor so gets down
Do the stores still stay open
On Friday nights downtown.

Is 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
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.

Carry me back Lord
While I still got the time...
