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