Charley Pride Burgers and Fries Lyrics

Burgers and fries and cherry pies, it was simple and good back then

Walking in the sand hand in hand never thinking that it could end

Making our love with the moon above at the drive in picture show

And it was burgers and fries and cherry pies in a world we used to know

 

Changes come and go we've had our share I know

Now it seems we don't have time for love anymore

All the things we used to say, little things we did each day

Oh I long to do the things that we did before

 

When it was burgers and fries and cherry pies, it was simple and good back then

Walking in the sand hand in hand never thinking that it could end

Making our love with the moon above at the drive in picture show

And it was burgers and fries and cherry pies in a world we used to know

 

Well I'm still the same old me, that's all I'll ever be

I'd like to think that you're the same old you

We lost something down the line that I wish we both could find

Lord I'd like to do the things that we used to do

 

When it was burgers and fries and cherry pies, it was simple and good back then

Walking in the sand hand in hand never thinking that it could end

Making our love with the moon above at the drive in picture show

And it was burgers and fries and cherry pies in a world we used to know
