An Old Box of Memories
Its an old box I put away
of memories from other days
Up in the attic it will stay
Until they haul it all away
Oooh, no sad farewall
I'll just keep it on the shelf
An old box but don't you see
Still means a lot to me.
That old hat I used to wear
A pretty lock of baby's hair
Birthday Cards and magazines
My grandpa's wedding ring.
I don't know exactly why
But losing them would make me cry
That old box of memories
Really mean a lot to me.
There's someone I used to know
How many years ago
Photographs of radios
we used to listen o'er
Over here's that Sousaphone
The old front porch at home.
Memories from other days
Can't bear to throw 'em away
* Refrain
The old hat I used to wear
A pretty lock of baby hair
Birthday Cards and magazines
My grandpa's wedding ring.
Its an old box I put away
of memories of other days
Up in the attic it will stay
'Til they haul us all away
Oooh, no sad farewall
I'll just keep it on the shelf
An old box but don't you see
Really means a lot to me.
