Those Were The Days (Opening Theme) by Lee Adams and Charles Strouse
Sung by Jean Stapleton and Carroll O'Connor -
As heard on the show
Boy the way Glen Miller played songs that made the hit parade.
Guys like us we had it made, those were the days.
And you knew who you were then,
Girls were girls and men were men,
Mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again.
Didn’t need no welfare state, Everybody pulled his weight.
Gee our old LaSalle ran great. Those were the days.
Complete Lyrics
Boy, the way Glenn Miller played songs that made the hit parade.
Guys like us we had it made. Those were the days.
Didn't need no welfare state. Everybody pulled his weight.
Gee, our old LaSalle ran great those were the days.
And you knew who you were then,
Girls were girls and men were men.
Mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again.
People seemed to be content. Fifty dollars paid the rent.
Freaks were in a circus tent. Those were the days.
Take a little Sunday spin. Go to watch the Dodgers win.
Have yourself a dandy day that cost you under a fin.
Hair was short and skirts were long. Kate Smith really sold a song.
I just don't know what went wrong. Those were the days.
Remembering You
(Closing Theme - these lyrics were never heard on the show.)
Got a feelin it’s all over now - all over now, were through.
And tomorrow I’ll be lonesome, remembering you.
Got a feelin the sun will be gone - the day will be long and blue.
And tomorrow I’ll be crying, remembering you.
There’s a far away look in your eye when you try to pretend to me,
That everything is the same it used to be.
I see it’s all over now. All over now, were through.
And tomorrow I’ll be startin, remembering you.
