Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thought Jack Daniels was the working man's tea
It was the window to the life I used to lead
I used to ramble, like a feather in the breeze
But nowadays the good times, ain't what they used to be
[Verse 2]
Back home on those backroads, everybody's moving slow
Till I hit that highway, just as fast as I could go
I think that high road's been catching up with me
'Cause nowadays the good times, Lord, ain't what they used to be
[Verse 3]
And nowadays I dream of an old cane pole
My baby's sweet tea and my favorite fishing hole
I sit down on that bank underneath the shade tree
And I thank God the good times, Lord, ain't what they used to be
[Verse 4]
I sit down on that bank underneath the shade tree
And I thank God the good times, Lord, ain't what they used to be
I thank God the good times, ain't what they used to be
