Ain't Nothing Like It Used to Be [Born to Be Wild: A Retrospective]
One glass in the mornin', two shots at night
Three fourths anytime that you
Wanna get tight
Drink wine to remember, swill gin to forget
And blame the world for the peace
That you haven't found yet
He stood at the bar with a bottle in his hand
And he complained so bitterly 'bout a
World he could not understand
He said "All my life
I've hustled and paid to survive
Say, can't you see
What's wrong with the world ain't me"
Ain't nothing' like it used to be
Ain't nothing' like it once was
Ain't nothin' like it ought to be
Ain't nothin' right no more
One pill in the mornin', two joints at night
Three spoons any time that you
Want to feel right
Toot coke to remember, shoot smack to forget
And blame the world for the
Life you haven't lived yet
Get up in the mornin', give love at night
And take time for yourself when
You're losing the fight
Take care to remember
It takes time to forget
Thank God for the time that
You haven't had yet
