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