In The Good Old Days (When Times Were Bad) - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)[00:00:00]
We'd get up before sun-up[00:00:12]
To get the work done up[00:00:14]
We'd work in the fields[00:00:16]
Till the sun had gone down[00:00:18]
We've stood and we've cried as[00:00:23]
We have bristly watched[00:00:25]
A hailstorm a' beatin' our crops to the ground[00:00:27]
And I've gone to bed hungry[00:00:34]
Many nights as the lad[00:00:36]
In the good old days[00:00:38]
When times were bad[00:00:42]
I've seen daddy's hands break open and bleed[00:00:47]
And I've seen him work[00:00:51]
Till he's stiff as a board[00:00:53]
I've seen mama lay and suffer in sickness[00:00:58]
In need of a doctor we couldn't afford[00:01:02]
Anything at all was more than we had[00:01:09]
In the good old days[00:01:13]
When times were bad[00:01:17]
No ammount of money could buy from me[00:01:22]
The memories that I have of them[00:01:26]
No ammount of money could pay me[00:01:30]
To go back and live through it again[00:01:34]
We've got up before[00:01:42]
We found ice on the floor[00:01:43]
Where the wind would blew snow[00:01:46]
Through the cracks in the wall[00:01:48]
And I've walked many miles[00:01:53]
To an old country school[00:01:55]
With my luch in a bag of my overalls[00:01:57]
Anything at all was more than we had[00:02:04]
In the good old days[00:02:08]
When times were bad[00:02:12]
No ammount of money could buy from me[00:02:17]
The memories that I have of them[00:02:21]
No ammount of money could pay me[00:02:25]
To go back and live through it again[00:02:29]
