Luyện nghe bài hát Things

Things ain't the way they used to be
Things I thought I remembered well look now to me
For adult eyes can surprise a Childhood memory
No, things just ain't the way used to be

The at the school don't seem as tall
As I neither do the fountains in the hall
And that fifth teacher wasn't terrible at all
No, things just ain't the way they to be

The doesn't seem as big somehow
And I put a ball right through the office window now
And I know now why chewing gum in school was not
No, just ain't the way they used to be

Butch Carter used to us kids afraid
bust the lip of any kid who dared get in his way
I wish ole' Butch was standin' here in front of me
'Cause, things just ain't the way they to be

I wish I could have grown the man
That I pictured as a child and filled those plans
I'd do it if only I could live my life again
But things just ain't the way they to be

Forbidden unfamiliar streets,
Places mama told me I should set my feet
Well today I know exactly where those streets and alleys
'Cause things ain't the way they used to be

Buck Painter is no unemployed,
Uncle has settled down with age and rarely gets annoyed
And now I Butch Carter's gone to workin' for the Lord
No, things just the way they used to be
No, things just ain't the way they to be
