It Sure Was Better Then - Steve Forbert
Live version - Folk Live from Mountain

(guitar Intro)

on the Georgia Line the live long day
Ninety nine degrees and only past May
Nailing the metal with the crosstime blues
I had creosote all over my
I it, you know, now I find I miss it
Every my little pension check rolls in
Course I had it bad... not as bad as is
It was better back then
It sure was better back then

Working in the rain surplus tarp
Foreman in the twanging a sad Jews harp
Passing out at night in my mud caked jeans
I was living off of and beans
I it, you know, now I swear I miss it
Every time I look down on my pale skin
I had it bad... not as bad as this is
It sure was back then
It sure was back then

(guitar lead)

Well, the caught my leg, and, boy, the damn thing bled
Foreman sewed the up with tarp patch thread
Sit me by the camp, have the cook clean pans
And scrub down with Georgia red sand...
I hated it, you know, now I I miss it
Staring in my TV the broadcast ends
I had it bad... not as bad as this is
It sure was better back
It sure was better then
It was better back... one more time...
It sure was back then

(guitar lead)

(spoken over lead) Let's go on off with 'em (??)
...Some of beat happenin' (audience clapping)
...that's do, that's good... (??)

Well, the cable caught my leg, and, boy, the damn bled
Foreman sewed the muscle up with patch thread
Sit me by the camp, gonna have the cook clean
And scrub them down with red sand...
I hated it, you know, now I really I it
Starin' in the TV the broadcast ends
Course I had it bad... not as bad as is
It sure was better back
It sure was better back
It was better back... one more time...
It was better back then

(guitar out)
