Ain't Nothing Like It Used to Be Songtext
von Steppenwolf

One glass in the morning
Two shots at night
And three fourths any time you wanna get tight
Drink wine to remember
Swirl gin to forget
And blame the world for the peace 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
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 nothing like it ought to be
Ain't nothing right no more


One pill in the morning
Two joints at night
And three spoons any time you wanna feel right
Two cokes to remember
Shoot smack to forget
And blame the world for the peace you haven′t found yet

She sat in her car with her head held in her hand
Complained so bitterly
'Bout a world she could not understand
She said, "All my life, I′ve hustled and paid to survive
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 nothing like it ought to be
Ain't nothing right no more

Get up in the morning
Give love at night
Take time for yourself when you′re losing the fight
Take care to remember
Takes time to forget
Thank God for the time you haven't had yet

Ain′t nothing like it used to be
Ain't nothing like it once was
Ain't nothing like it ought to be
Do nothing wrong no more


Ain′t nothing like it used to be
Ain′t nothing like it once was
Ain't nothing like it ought to be
Do nothing wrong no more
