The Future Is Not What It Used to Be - Ronnie Milsap[00:00:00]
I left Decatur helping to forget her[00:00:16]
Bought a ticket to Skowhegan Maine[00:00:23]
I wound up in Seattle too drunk and too rattled[00:00:31]
To know that I caught the wrong train[00:00:39]
I met some fast easy women[00:00:47]
And some hard drinking men[00:00:51]
Trying to drown the sorrow in me[00:00:54]
I once had a lot but the future is not[00:01:02]
Not what it used to be[00:01:10]
The years they went by and I went steadily down[00:01:22]
'Til I had no place to go[00:01:30]
Made the soup lines by morning[00:01:38]
And the dives every night[00:01:42]
Wrecking my body and soul[00:01:45]
And then I met a lady and in time she made me forget[00:01:53]
Yes her love set me free[00:02:04]
We ain't got a lot but the future is not[00:02:09]
Not what it used to be[00:02:19]
Oh I never thought I could live to get over[00:02:29]
For the past cut a hole deep in me[00:02:37]
But now there's a chance I'll be here a while longer[00:02:45]
At least now I wanna be[00:02:55]
Somebody told me that you were in town[00:03:02]
I found out today[00:03:11]
And you know that I'm sorry to hear that you're down[00:03:18]
But what can I say [00:03:27]
That I know your sorrow and I know your pain[00:03:32]
Don't you know I know your need [00:03:41]
'Cos I want to love you a lot but the future is not[00:03:47]
Not what it used to be[00:03:57]
