Текст пісні
Just a hand-me-down ford that I got from my brother
When he got it from our dad, it was used too
And that three on the tree, it was all new to me
It was something that I had to get used to
Couple holes in the floorboard, mismatched doors
And the A.C. only blows heat
Yeah, he bought it in our hometown
Drove it till it broke down
Never left the 7-0-3
No, they don't make them like they used to
Nowadays, everything's new school
From the trucks to the cars to the women and the bars
No, they don't make them like they used to
There's a handful of things that are never gonna change
Like the sun and the stars and a full moon
It's why I hang on to everything I own
Cause they don't make them like they used to
No, they don't make them like they used to
Yeah, the way that I talk must have got it from my mom
Cause my dad, he grew up in the northeast
There was food in the kitchen, always had to ear to listen
Never raised much hell, til she raised me
She was Sunday morning service, no, there ain't nobody perfect
But if you ask her, I was
And what mama don't know won't burden her soul
I guess God's watching now from above
No, they don't make them like they used to
Nowadays, everything's new school
From the trucks to the cars to the women and the bars
No, they don't make them like they used to
There's a handful of things that are never gonna change
Like the sun and the stars and a full moon
It's why I hang on to everything I own
Cause they don't make them like they used to
No, they don't make them like they used to
Like some old Conway on vinyl
Or my great-granddaddy's rifle
It still shoots as straight as the day he gave it to me
No, they don't make them like they used to
Nowadays, everything's new school
From the trucks to the cars to the women and the bars
No, they don't make them like they used to
There's a handful of things that are never gonna change
Like the sun and the stars and the full moon
It's why I hang on to everything I own
Cause they don't make them like they used to
No, they don't make them like they used to
