[Verse 1]
This gravestone is peaceful and quiet
She pulls up a chair and sits right by it
The air around is gentle and warm
The rose colored wreath is tattered and torn

[Verse 2]
Tiny blades of grass are peeking through
Drawing life from sunshine and dew
Remembering his eyes when she lied
Knowing she lives, feeling she's died

[Chorus]
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone?
Where have all the good times gone, my child?
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da

[Verse 3]
So every night after sunshine
You'll find her there alone in her shrine
Two forms appearing ghostly in rain
One red marble, the other blue pain

[Chorus]
Where have all the good times gone? (Da da da da da da da)
Where have all the good times gone? (Da da da da da da da)
Where have all the good times gone, my child?
(Da da da da da da da)
Where have all the good times gone? (Da da da da da da da)
Where have all the good times gone? (Da da da da da da da)
Where have all the good times gone, my child?
(Da da da da da da da)
(Da da da da da da da)
Where have all the good times gone, my child?

As a locally successful Detroit-area artist, he performed and recorded as Bob Seger and the Last Heard and Bob Seger System throughout the 1960s. By the early 1970s, he had dropped the “System” from his recordings and continued to strive for broader success with various other bands. In 1973, he put together the Silver Bullet Band, with a group of Detroit-area musicians, with whom he became most successful on the national level with the album Live Bullet, recorded live with the Silver Bullet Band in 1975 at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan. On his studio albums, he also worked extensively with the Alabama-based Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, which appeared on several of Seger’s best-selling singles and albums.

In 1976, he achieved a national breakout with the studio album Night Moves. The Night Moves title track became his first Billboard Top 5 single and the album started a string six consecutive albums landing in the Billbaord Top 10. The 1980 album, Against the Wind, topped the charts.
