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