Things Ain't Like They Used To Be lyrics

I went around the way for you

Did all those things you asked me to

I thought it was the perfect day

Till she just opened up to say:

"It doesn't mean a thing to me

It doesn't mean a thing to me

And it's about time you see

Things ain't like they used to be"

I headed out to Lester Hill

But that just made me weaker still

She's got the kind of love I need

The kind that's never good on me

It doesn't mean a thing to me

It doesn't mean a thing to me

And it's about time you see

Things ain't like they used to be

I walked into the battle blind

It happens almost all the time

The yard is kind of overgrown

And all those happy times are gone

It doesn't mean a thing to me

It doesn't mean a thing to me

And it's about time you see

That things ain't like they used to be

It doesn't mean a thing to me, oh

It doesn't mean a thing to me

And it's about time you see

Things ain't like they used to be
