Jeannie C. Riley Lyrics

Yearbooks And Yesterdays Lyrics
The weather was bad it was windy and rainin' outside

So I decided to stay in clean my room and give a lift to my pride

I was cleanin' out the corner of my closet and overturned a boxlid

And there were my yearbooks and pictures and my yesterday friends

On the very first page Jeannie Adams set smilin' at me

She was the queen of the senior class but she failed in history

Hi Jeannie 'member when we played hockey with those out of town boys

And how scared we got they didn't wanna bring us back and called us killjoys

On the next page there was Johnny Roosevelt most handsome boy at school

Hi Johnny guess you never knew what a crush I had on you

But it only lasted untill Michael Grady moved to Central High

He was a big bashful football bawl and I loved him at first sight

Well there you are Mike I was wonderin' when you'd be showin' up

Gosh you've got a bruise on your eye

Oh I remember those Pacus boys were mighty rough

And remember how us girls all cried when we lost the game that night

It was so cold why you couldn't even squeeze me you were bandaged up so tight

Hello Paddy June and Billy Roy heard you've married and settled down

Betty Rogers still writes now and then since I moved out of town

You remember my daddy got a transfer when school came to an end

And for awhile I lost tracks of my yearbooks and yesterdays friends

But today as I visit back with you hi Joni and Clyde

I know I never really could forget you even if I tried

For in my heart all our years together never came to an end

And you know there's really no such thing as a yesterday friend

There's really no such a thing as a yesterday friend
