In The Good Old Days (When Times Were Bad) - Dolly Parton

We'd get up before sun-up to get the work done up

We'd work in the fields till the sun had gone down

We've stood and we've cried as we have bristly watched

A hailstorm a' beatin' our crops to the ground

We've gone to bed hungry many nights in the past

In the good old days when times were bad

No amount of money could buy from me

The memories that I have of then

No amount of money could pay me

To go back and live through it again

I've seen daddy's hands break open and bleed

And I've seen him work till he's stiff as a board

An' I've seen momma layin' in suffer and sickness

In need of a doctor we couldn't afford

Anything at all was more than we had

In the good old days when times were bad

We've got up before and found ice on the floor

Where the wind would blow snow through the cracks in the wall

And I couldn't enjoy then havin' a boyfriend

I had nothing decent to wear at all

So I long for a love that I never had

In the good old days when times were bad

No amount of money could buy from me

The memories that I have of then

No amount of money could pay me

To go back and live through it again

In the good old days when times were bad

In the good old days when times were bad
