Sign Of The Times — текст песни (Travis Tritt)

My daddy told me stories about how this country was when he was just a kid
How people took the time to care
and took alot of pride in the things they did
And I can`t help but wonder
What happened to that spirit
Down through the years
Is it something we`ve forgotten
Or something that we just don`t want to hear

Chorus:

It`s a sign of the times we`re in
When we can`t find the time to help a friend
Or show a little more compassion too
The problems in each others lives
We`re more concerned with makin` money
Than stayin` home lovin` our family
And I wish I could change the things I see
In the signs of the times

I you need to borrow money now
They want to know how many assets you can claim
It`s not like it was back years ago
When grandpa borrowed money simply on his name
And it sure does seem a pity
But a man`s word don`t count for much here anymore
And I wish I could turn the clock back to
The way my daddy said it was before

Chorus: (twice)

And I wish I could change the things I see
In the signs of the times
