I sure miss those good old times that we used to have
But I can tell that you forgotten all about them now
You found someone new to have your good times with you now
I sure miss those good old times that we used to have

Well hello darlin', it's good to see you smiling again
Baby you look so much happier than you've ever been
You know Jerry Lee hasn't settled down I'm still on the go
But I think about you darlin' and I still want you to know

I sure miss those good old times that we used to have
But I can tell that you forgotten all about them now
You found someone new to have your good times with you now
I sure miss those good old times that we used to have

No I never see much of the old gang anymore
'Cause I never go to all those places where we used to go
I'm afraid of what I'd do if I saw him with you
Doing all those little things that we used to do

I sure miss those good old times that we used to have
But I can tell that you forgotten all about them now
You found someone new to have your good times with you now
I sure miss those good old times that we used to have

Jerry Lee Lewis was a leading figure in the popularization of rock & roll during the 1950s. He was first signed to Sun Records in 1956 where he was labelmates with Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and other early rock artists. Of those musicians, however, he was the only piano player and combined with his heavy-handed playing style, sexually suggestive lyrics, and provocative stage antics he came to epitomize the rebelliousness of the genre.

He rose to international fame for his 1957 versions of the songs “Great Balls of Fire” and “Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On.”

Lewis' popularity rapidly tumbled, however, when in 1958, when at the age of 22, he married his 13-year-old cousin. Though this scandal continued to tarnish his image, Lewis never retired from music. As of October 2015, he continues to perform live.
