[Verse]
D# G# A#
Well I grew up half way ‘tween Mississippi and Texas
D# G# A#
Summer sure was hot down ol' Cypress Bottom Road
Riff
D# G# A#
I remember Momma waking us up and cooking us breakfast
D#
And Daddy pattin' us on the back as he
G# A#
walked us to them old corn rows
A# G#
And we kicked up dust...
[Chorus]
A# D# G# A#
Back when it was the way it was
A# D# G# A#
Back when it was the way it was
Riff
[Verse]
D# G# A#
Now we didn't have a whole lot but wasn't hurtin' for nothin'
D# G# A#
Some good ground that Daddy found and the good Lord up above
D# G# A#
A# creek bottom full of firewood that was well worth cuttin'
D# G# A#
And some ol' dogs that would load up my '72 pick-up truck
A# G#
And run a rabbit, hog or white tail buck
[Chorus]
A# D# G# A#
Back when it was the way it was
A# D# G# A#
Back when it was the way it was
A# D# G# A#
Back when was the way-hay...
A# D# G# A#
Back when was the way it was
Riff
[Verse]
D# G# A#
Now there's a barefoot ball game bound to be broke out some where
D# G# A#
And I got a hundred on the ‘tween front porch and the mail box
D# G# A#
Unless of course when it was rain we were staring down yonder
D# G# A#
At that ol' weeping willow across the road down there by Uncle Hobbs
A# G#
Ah soakin' up every single drop
[Chorus]
A# D# G# A#
Back when it was the way it was
A# D# G# A#
Back when it was the way it was
A# D# G# A#
Back when was the way-hay...
A# D# G# A#
Back when was the way it was
Riff
