Lyrics
USED TO DO BEFORE
Words and music by Ervin R. Maynard
Copyright 2004
I ACTED CRAZY WHEN I WAS A KID
I CAN?T BELIEVE ALL THE THINGS I DID
AND THAT?S WHY YOU DON?T SEE ME RUNNING WILD
NO MORE
I CAN?T DO THOSE THINGS I USED TO DO BEFORE
PEOPLE CHANGE AS TIME GOES ON
LOCK THE BAD AWAY AND PASS THE GOOD ALONG
AND THAT?S WHY YOU DON?T SEE ME RUNNING WILD
NO MORE
I CAN?T DO THOSE THINGS I USED TO DO BEFORE
I AIN?T PERFECT
BUT I?M NO FOOL
I PAY ATTENTION TO THE GOLDEN RULE
I HAD TO SLOW THINGS DOWN
OR I?D HAVE DIED FOR SURE
BECAUSE I CAN?T DO THOSE THINGS I USED TO DO BEFORE
GROWING OLD AIN?T SO BAD
BECAUSE I CAN STILL REMEMBER ALL THE FUN I HAD
BUT NOW YOU DON?T SEE ME RUNNING WILD
NO MORE
I CAN?T DO THOSE THINGS I USED TO DO BEFORE
