Billy Currington - Ain't What It Used To Be [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
That backward town in my rear view
Was going to be my whole world
Til my factory job got shipped to Mexico
And a city boy stole my sweet girl
I used to know everybody by name
Everybody's moved away
Can't say that I'm really wanting to go
But I've run out of reasons to stay

[Chorus]
This ain't nothing like what I
Had in mind for me
But then again my future
Ain't what it used to be

[Verse 2]
Well I thought like my dad and his daddy before
That I would die where I was born
Live a small town dream in a big backyard
Raisin' babies and corn
Now here I am, one eye on the road
Trying to read a map on the dash
Nowhere close to making up my mind
With a fork in the road coming fast

[Chorus][x2]

[Outro]
That backward town in my rear view
Was going to be my whole world
