Bottle Rockets - Way It Used to Be Lyrics

Robert Parr/Brian Henneman

The birds have all gone south
Ever since you've gone
Been two thousand days
Ever since you've gone
There's still a memory
Hangin' out around the barn
Of the way it used to be

chorus:
Way it used to be
Oh the way it used to be
I can still remember it just fine
But the things that bother me
Are the things no one can see
And it's hard to see them coming from behind

Think I'll go in the Navy
Think I'll get me a career
Think I'll get my G.E.D.
It's become quite apparent
There ain't nothin' around here
But the way it used to be

Chorus
