Just Like Yesterday

Do you ever take some time, my friend To stop and remember the past? Just like a familiar old movie reel Memories that will forever last Why, I can see grandma as plain as day Rolling out dough on a board Chopping up those tart apples From the cellar where they were stored I see grandpa working out in the fields Ready to feed the curious cows Those cows standing in a straight line And beyond I see the old plow The old house standing tall and strong The wrap-around porch beckoning me Ah yes, there is that old board-seat swing Hanging from the huge sycamore tree A windmill out in the wheat field The wind making swishing sounds As the bending wheat blows softly The windmill going ‘round and ‘round The happiness from my childhood Of family, friends and of play Sends me back so many years But it seems just like yesterday!
