Luyện nghe bài hát Things

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

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

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

Butch Carter used to keep us kids
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 ain't the way they used to be

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

Forbidden unfamiliar streets,
Places mama me I should never set my feet
Well today I know exactly where those and alleys lead
'Cause just ain't the way they used to be

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