ronnie milsap – the future is not what it used to be lyrics
i left decatur helping to forget her
bought a ticket to skowhegan, maine
i wound up in seattle too drunk and too rattled
to know that i caught the wrong train.
i met some fast easy women and some hard drinking men
trying to drown the sorrow in me
aah i once had a lot but the future is not
not what it used to be.
aah the years they went by and i went steadily down
til i had no place to go
made the soup lines by morning and the dives every night
wrecking my body and soul.
and then i met a lady and in time she made me forget
yes her love set me free
aah we ain’t got a lot but the future is not
not what it used to be.
oh i never thought i could live to get over
for the past cut a hole deep in me
but there’s a chance i’ll be here a while longer
at least now i wanna be.
somebody told me that you were in town
i found out today
and you know that i’m sorry to hear that you’re down
but what can i say.
that i know your sorrow and i know your pain
don’t you know i know your need
i used to love you a lot but the furture is not
not what it used to be…
