Luyện nghe bài hát Things

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

The windows at the don't seem as tall
As I remember do the fountains in the hall
And fifth grade teacher wasn't terrible at all
No, things just the way they used to be

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

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

I wish I have grown into the man
That I pictured as a child and filled childhood plans
I'd do it right if only I could 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 I know exactly where those streets and alleys lead
'Cause things just ain't the way they to be

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