It Sure Was Better Back Then (Album Version) - Steve Forbert[00:00:00]
Working on the Georgia Line the live long day[00:00:28]
Ninety nine degrees and only half past May[00:00:31]
Nailing down the metal with the crosstime blues[00:00:35]
I had creosote all over my shoes[00:00:38]
I hated it you know now I find I miss it[00:00:41]
Every time my little pension check rolls in[00:00:45]
Course I had it bad not as bad as this is[00:00:48]
It sure was better back then[00:00:52]
Yeah It sure was better back then[00:00:55]
Working in the rain beneath surplus tarp[00:00:59]
Foreman in the wagon twanging a sad Jews harp[00:01:02]
Passing out at night still in my mud caked jeans[00:01:06]
I was living off of berries and beans[00:01:09]
I hated it you know now I swear I miss it[00:01:12]
Every time I look down on my pale white skin[00:01:16]
Course I had it bad not as bad as this is[00:01:19]
It sure was better back then[00:01:23]
It sure was better back then[00:01:26]
Well the cable caught my leg and boy [00:01:57]
The damn thing bled[00:01:59]
Foreman sewed the muscle up with tarp patch thread[00:02:01]
Sit me by the camp gonna have the cook clean pans[00:02:04]
And scrub them down with Georgia red sand [00:02:07]
I hated it you know now I really I miss it[00:02:11]
Staring in my TV till the broadcast ends[00:02:14]
Course I had it bad not as bad as this is[00:02:18]
It sure was better back then[00:02:22]
It sure was better back then[00:02:25]
It sure was better back then[00:02:28]
It sure was better back then[00:02:35]
