《It Sure Was Better Back Then》歌词

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:04] 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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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