The Used To Be
They don't make the movies
They don't make the cars
They don't make the good food the way they used to
Good lawd
It ain't nothing, nowhere nothing like
Nothing like it used to be no
And what about the parties
They ain't even close
They don't sell the dream like they used to
Everybody knows
It ain't nothing, nowhere nothing like
Nothing like it used to be
Cause the used to be is gone
What happened to the place that used to be there
Used to be the place that would all ride by
What happened to the food I would get there
Things keep changing but don't feel right
Tell me where to find someone around here
Who knows a different time
How I wish I could put it all back together, together
They don't make the movies
They don't make the cars
They don't make the good food the way they used to
Good lawd
It ain't nothing, nowhere nothing like
Nothing like it used to be no
And what about the parties
They ain't even close
They don't sell the dream like they used to
Everybody knows
It ain't nothing, nowhere nothing like
Nothing like it used to be
Cause the used to be is gone
What happened to the woman who lived there
She would feed the neighborhood with a smile
I don't see our spot, it used to be here
Where they gonna go now Friday night
Take me to somebody else around here
From a different time
Oh How I wish I could put this all back together, forever
They don't make the movies
They don't make the cars
They don't make the good food the way they used to
Good lawd
It ain't nothing, nowhere nothing like
Nothing like it used to be no
And what about the parties
They ain't even close
They don't sell the dream like they used to
Everybody knows
It ain't nothing, nowhere nothing like
Nothing like it used to be
Cause the used to be is gone
The good stuff ain't here no more
My old spot ain't there no more
And all my friends don't hang no more
Ain't nothing like, like it used to be
They don't make the movies
They don't make the cars
They don't make the good food the way they used to
Good lawd
It ain't nothing, nowhere nothing like
Nothing like it used to be no
And what about the parties
They ain't even close
They don't sell the dream like they used to
Everybody knows
It ain't nothing, nowhere nothing like
Nothing like it used to be
Cause the used to be is gone
The good stuff ain't here no more
My old spot ain't there no more
And all my friends don't hang no more
Ain't nothing like, like it used to be
They don't make the movies
They don't make the cars
They don't make the good food the way they used to
Good lawd
It ain't nothing, nowhere nothing like
Nothing like it used to be no
And what about the parties
They ain't even close
They don't sell the dream like they used to
Everybody knows

Nothing like it used to be
