lirik lagu the future’s not what it used to be – mickey newbury
i left decatur, h-ll bent to forget
bought a ticket back to skowhegan, maine
i wound up in seattle so drunk and so rattled
i caught the wrong train
i found some fast easy women and some hard drinkin’ men
swore i would drown all the sorrow in me
oh, i once had a lot
but the future is not what it used to be
oh, the years they went by and i went steadily downhill
until i had no place left to go
made all the missions by mornin’ and then i made the dives every night
until i made a wreck of my body and my soul
and then i met this lady
in time she made me forget, her love set me free
i once had a lot
but the future is just not what it used to be
well, i never thought i would live to grow old
the past cut a hole deep in me
and shackled and chained to a ghost that remains
i was haunted by your memory
somebody told me you were back in town
i found out today
god knows it hurts me to hear you’re so down
but what else can i say
i know your sorrow, i know your pain, i know your need
and i once loved you a lot
but the future is just not what it used to be
its not what it used to be
