[Intro] [Verse 1] I’ve been listening to my radio for two or three years And the music they’ve been playing is so doggone bad that it’s offendin’to my ears But them kids come over from the Mersey river made us think back till then So let’s put on our shoes and think about the blues and start all over again [Chorus] With that Good Time Music like we played so long ago don’t you know yeah With that Good Time Music yes it’s back on the radio [Verse 2] I don’t want no cryin’ violins no sax no slide trombones I don’t want no screaming ya-ya girls and no honkin’ English horns I don’t want no symphony orchestra with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir All I want is a guitar a harp and drum just to set my soul on fire [Chorus] With that Good Time Music like we played so long ago don’t you know yeah With that Good Time Music yes it’s back on the radio [Instrumental] [Verse 3] I’ve been listening to my radio for two or three years And the music they’ve been playing is so doggone bad that it’s offendin’to my ears But them kids come over from the Mersey river made us think back till then So let’s put on our shoes and think about the blues and start all over again [Chorus] With that Good Time Music like we played so long ago don’t you know yeah With that Good Time Music yes it’s back on the radio

La chanson évoque une frustration face à la musique contemporaine, jugée médiocre. Le narrateur se remémore des souvenirs nostalgiques liés à une période où la musique était plus authentique et joyeuse. Il exprime un désir de retrouver cette ambiance en se reconnectant à des sons simples, comme ceux d'une guitare et d'un tambour, loin des orchestres symphoniques et des tendances modernes. C'est un appel à revenir à l'essentiel, à la musique qui fait du bien, un retour aux racines musicales qui rappellent des moments agréables et authentiques. La référence à la rivière Mersey souligne l'influence des jeunes musiciens de cette époque, ajoutant une dimension de camaraderie et de renaissance musicale.
