In The Good Old Days (When Times Were Bad) |
We got up before sunup to get the work done up |
We’d work in the fields till the sun had gone down |
We’ve stood and we’ve cried as we helplessly watched |
A hailstorm a beatin' our crops to the ground |
And I’ve gone to bed hungry many nights as a lad |
In the good old days when times were bad |
I’ve seen daddy’s hands break open and bleed |
And I’ve seen him work till he’s stiff as a board |
I’ve seen mama lay and suffer in sickness |
In need of a doctor we couldn’t afford |
Anything at all was more than we had |
In the good old days when times were bad |
No ammount of money could buy from me |
The mem’ries that I have of them |
No ammount of money could pay me |
To go back and live through it again |
We’ve got up before we found ice on the floor |
Where the wind would blew snow |
Through the cracks in the wall |
And I’ve walked many miles to an old country school |
With my luch in a bag of my overalls |
Anything at all was more than we had |
In the good old days when times were bad |
No ammount of money could buy from me |
The mem’ries that I have of them |
No ammount of money could pay me |
To go back and live through it again |
