They don't make tin roofs like they used to
And you could count every drop of rain falling down
And get lost in the rhythm of a summer storm
They don't make roofs like that now
They don't make tin roofs like they used to
They don't make old porches like they used to
The kind that wraps all the way around
Well mom would rock and I would swing
And I would play the guitar and sing
They don't make porches like that now
They don't make old porches like they used to
The world turns another day
And old things have passed away
New things take the place like they do
Then it crosses my mind
That only people change with time
No one stays the same not me not you
They just don't make 'em like they used to
They don't make back yards like they used to
Soft green grass wildflowers all around
We would laugh and we would run
Or just lay under the sun
They don't make yards like that now
They don't make back yards like they used to
The world turns another day
And old things have passed away
New things take the place like they do
Then it crosses my mind
That only people change with time
No one stays the same not me not you
They just don't make 'em like they used to
The world turns another day
And old things have passed away
New things take the place like they do
Then it crosses my mind
That only people change with time
No one stays the same not me not you
They just don't make 'em like they used to
They just don't make 'em like they used to
