Don't Make 'em Like They Used To - The Harpoonist & the Axe Murderer

Hard times I’m going through

Got a woman and she can’t be true

Oh well…

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to

Had a friend but he didn’t last

All he left was this knife in my back

Oh well…

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to

I remember the days

Moving slow

And everything was new

I remember the days

Where did they go?

I guess those days are through

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to

Welding steel

For automobiles

Machines can build what ten men couldn’t do

Oh well…

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to

Where did land of the plenty go?

It’s up above I’m six feet below

Oh well…

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to

I remember the days

Moving slow

And everything was new

I remember the days

Where did they go?

I guess those days are through

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to

Brother what’s it all coming to?

Ain’t no one left that can sing the blues

Oh well…

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to

They got the body but they got no soul

They got tracks goin' solid gold

Oh well…

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to

I remember the days

Moving slow

And everything was new

I remember the days

Where did they go?

I guess those days are through

They just don’t make ‘em like they used to
