Ain't What It Used To Be Lyrics - Singles - Megan Mullins

That backwood town in my rear view 

Was gonna be my whole world 

Till my factory job got shipped to Mexico 

An' my farm boy chased a city girl 

I used to know everybody by name 

But everybody's moved away 

Can't say that I'm really wantin' to go 

But I've run out of reasons to stay 

This ain't nothin' like 

What I had in mind for me 

But then again, the future 

Ain't what it used to be 

I thought like my mom and her momma before 

That I would die where I was born 

Live a small town dream in a big backyard 

Raisin' babies an' corn 

Now here I am, one I amu row 

Tryin' the read the map on the dash 

Nowhere close to makin' up my mind 

With a fork in the road comin' fast 

This ain't nothin' like 

What I had in mind for me 

But then again, the future 

Ain't what it used to be 

No, this ain't nothin' like 

What I had in mind for me 

But then again, the future now 

Ain't what it used to be 

That backwood town in my rear view 

Was gonna be my whole world
