Grandpa (Tell Me ‘Bout the Good Ol’ Days) — The Judds
I grew up with Ray.
Since first I saw the love light in your eyes
I dreamt the world held not but joy for me
And even though we've drifted far apart
I never dreamed but what I dreamed of thee
I love you as I've never loved before
Since first I met you on the village green
Come to me e'er my dreams of love are o'er
I love you as I loved you when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen
Last night I dreamt I held your hand in mine
And once again you were my happy bride
I kissed you as I did in Auld Lang Syne
As to the church we wandered side by side
I love you as I've never loved before
Since first I met you on the village green
Come to me e'er my dreams of love are o'er
I love you as I loved you when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen!
That was funny! I remember several of those montage records. Some of the funniest had Pres Kennedy in them.

Ray went to Chaney High, We would go watch him fight Golden Gloves.
I used to see him every Friday night at the fish fry at a place called the Fireplace.
A genuine good guy.

In Buddy Hackett's skit Chinese Rock and Egg Roll, a Chinese restaurateur complains about having to cope with changing times. His customers are all seventeen, wear dungaree clothing and listen to rock and roll.
Buddy Hackett was one of the funniest bastards to ever live!
