Travis Tritt - Sign Of The Times lyrics

rate me

My daddy told me stories about

How this country was when I was just a kid

How people took the time to care

And took a lot of pride in the things they did

And I can't help but wonder

What happened to that spirit

Down through the years

It is something we have forgotten

Or something that we just don't want to hear

It's a sign of the times we're in

When we can't find the time to help a friend

Or show a little more compassion to

The problems in each other's lives

We're more concerned with makin' money

Than stayin' home lovin' our family.

And I wish I could change the things I see

In the signs of the times

If you need to borrow money now

They want to know how many assets you can claim

It's not like it was back years ago

When Grandpa borrowed money simply on his name

And it sure does seem a pity

But a man's word don't count for much here anymore

And I wish I could turn the clock back to

The way my daddy said it was before

It's a sign of the times we're in

When we can't find the time to help a friend

Or show a little more compassion to

The problems in each other's lives

We're more concerned with makin' money

Than stayin' home lovin' our family.

And I wish I could change the things I see

In the signs of the times

It's a sign of the times we're in

When we can't find the time to help a friend

Or show a little more compassion to

The problems in each other's lives

We're more concerned with makin' money

Than stayin' home lovin' our family.

And I wish I could change the things I see

In the signs of the times

And I wish I could change the things I see

In the signs of the times
