It Sure Was Better Back Then - Todd Snider[00:00:00]

Working on the Georgia line the live long day[00:00:00]

Ninety nine degrees and only half past May[00:00:04]

Nailing down the metal with the cross time blues[00:00:08]

I had creosote all over my shoes[00:00:13]

I hated it you know now I find I miss it[00:00:17]

Every time my little pension check rolls in[00:00:21]

Course I had it bad hey not as bad as this is[00:00:25]

It sure was better back then[00:00:30]

Yeah it sure was better back then[00:00:34]

Working in the rain beneath surplus tarp[00:00:53]

Foreman in the wagon twanging a sad Jews harp[00:00:56]

Passing out at night still in my mud caked jeans[00:01:00]

I was living off of berries and beans[00:01:04]

I hated it you know now I swear I miss it[00:01:09]

Every time I look down on my pale white skin[00:01:12]

Course I had it bad hey not as bad as this is[00:01:17]

It sure was better back then[00:01:21]

It sure was better back then[00:01:25]

Well the cable caught my leg and boy the damn thing bled[00:01:43]

Foreman sewed the muscle up with tarp patch thread[00:01:47]

Sit me by the camp gonna have the cook clean pans[00:01:51]

And scrub them down with Georgia red sand[00:01:55]

I hated it you know now I really I miss it[00:01:59]

Staring in my TV till the broadcast ends[00:02:03]

Course I had it bad hey not as bad as this is[00:02:07]

It sure was better back then[00:02:11]

It sure was better back then[00:02:15]

It sure was better back then[00:02:19]
