The Future Is Not What It Used To Be |
I left Decatur helping to forget her |
Bought a ticket to Skowhegan, Maine |
I wound up in Seattle too drunk and too rattled |
To know that I caught the wrong train. |
I met some fast easy women and some hard drinking men |
Trying to drown the sorrow in me Aah I once had a lot but the future is not |
Not what it used to be. |
Aah the years they went by and I went steadily down |
Til I had no place to go Made the soup lines by morning and the dives every night |
Wrecking my body and soul. |
And then I met a lady and in time she made me forget |
Yes her love set me free |
Aah we ain’t got a lot but the future is not |
Not what it used to be. |
Oh I never thought I could live to get over |
For the past cut a hole deep in me But there’s a chance I’ll be here a while longer |
At least now I wanna be. |
Somebody told me that you were in town |
I found out today |
And you know that I’m sorry to hear that you’re down |
But what can I say. |
That I know your sorrow and I know your pain |
Don’t you know I know your need |
I used to love you a lot but the furture is not |
Not what it used to be… |
