Jamey Johnson - 40 Years Ago lyrics

rate me

Gasoline was just a dime a gallon

They bring milk right up to your door

At least that's the way my Paw Paw said it was, about 40 years ago.

An old box car was the way to travel

He said, You could see the world in a week or so

And who had the biggest house, or the fastest car or the best clothes didn't matter

Just 40 years ago

But the winds of change have blown that time away

You wont find that spirit around these parts today

and if he were here right now, he'd say son, You're livin to fast

You gotta slow down and pray, aww stop an pray.

Restaurants were all closed on Sunday

and made in the USA was the best for show

At least thats the way my Paw Paw said it was, about 40 years ago.

40 years ago

40 Years ago

(echo) 40 years ago

Some days I think about the way he said things were before

Ain't it just a shame things don't work the same way no more

Nowadays everybody's goin' 90 miles an hour down a dead end road.

They done forgot the way things were before, just 40 years ago.
