When I Useta Could
Well back in my prime I was a wild ass son of a bitch
I'd drink, fight, and screw whenever I got the itch
Now them days are just a memory
What don't hurt, don't work ya see
And this grin on my face is all that's left
From how it used to be
When I use-ta could, man I really would
Tie one on every night till the rooster crowed
Never thought the fun would stop and I'd get old
And now the pain, ain't worth the gain
But Playin safe, just ain't the same
Not like back in the day, when I use-ta could
I'd fall madly in bed with every Betty, Sally, and Sue
Until that load of bull turned into Deja Moo
Caught my ass behind the garden gate
Love is blind but the neighbors ain't
Now this grin on my face is all that's left
From how it used to be
When I use-ta could, damn that youthful wood
Knock'em out every night like some great white hope
Now it's like I'm shootin' pool with a dusty rope
These days my lust is just a bust
That old pink steel is all full of rust
Not like back in the day, when I use-ta could
Now I piss and moan, and I grunt and groan
I'm just too damn tired, and I'm just a liar
If I claimed ta could
Now I piss and moan, and I grunt and groan
I'm just too damn tired, and I'm just a liar
If I claimed ta could
When I use-ta could, man I really would
Tie one on every night till the rooster crowed
Never thought the fun would stop and I'd get old
But now the pain, ain't worth the gain
And playin' safe just ain't the same
Not like back in the day, when I use-ta could
Not like back in the day, when I use-ta could
I'd drink, fight, and screw whenever I got the itch
Now them days are just a memory
What don't hurt, don't work ya see
And this grin on my face is all that's left
From how it used to be
When I use-ta could, man I really would
Tie one on every night till the rooster crowed
Never thought the fun would stop and I'd get old
And now the pain, ain't worth the gain
But Playin safe, just ain't the same
Not like back in the day, when I use-ta could
I'd fall madly in bed with every Betty, Sally, and Sue
Until that load of bull turned into Deja Moo
Caught my ass behind the garden gate
Love is blind but the neighbors ain't
Now this grin on my face is all that's left
From how it used to be
When I use-ta could, damn that youthful wood
Knock'em out every night like some great white hope
Now it's like I'm shootin' pool with a dusty rope
These days my lust is just a bust
That old pink steel is all full of rust
Not like back in the day, when I use-ta could
Now I piss and moan, and I grunt and groan
I'm just too damn tired, and I'm just a liar
If I claimed ta could
Now I piss and moan, and I grunt and groan
I'm just too damn tired, and I'm just a liar
If I claimed ta could
When I use-ta could, man I really would
Tie one on every night till the rooster crowed
Never thought the fun would stop and I'd get old
But now the pain, ain't worth the gain
And playin' safe just ain't the same
Not like back in the day, when I use-ta could
Not like back in the day, when I use-ta could
