All in the family (those were the days - jean stapleton and carroll o'connor) (opening theme)

As heard on the show

Boy the way Glen Miller played songs that made the hit parade.
Guys like us we had it made, those were the days.

And you knew who you were then,
Girls were girls and men were men,
Mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again.

Didn’t need no welfare state, Everybody pulled his weight.
Gee our old LaSalle ran great. Those were the days.

Complete Lyrics

Boy, the way Glenn Miller played songs that made the hit parade.
Guys like us we had it made. Those were the days.

Didn't need no welfare state. Everybody pulled his weight.
Gee, our old LaSalle ran great those were the days. And you knew who you were then,
Girls were girls and men were men.
Mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again.
People seemed to be content. Fifty dollars paid the rent.
Freaks were in a circus tent. Those were the days.

Take a little Sunday spin. Go to watch the Dodgers win.
Have yourself a dandy day that cost you under a fin.
Hair was short and skirts were long. Kate Smith really sold a song.
I just don't know what went wrong. Those were the days.
