Things in the old days
Things in the old days were not like they are now
they made their living off the land, to do that nowadays we wouldn't know how
plowing planting hauling and more
they used their backs, that's what they were for
no finer a woman could ever be found
than out on the range or settling towns
pioneer women they called them and for good reason
they withstood the storms every one in their season
the children were hearty and always content
helping with chores and sometimes the rent
families were usually large but lived close
giving love and much laughter in a big healthy dose
in these modern times we seldom see kin
hustling and bustling each day we begin
with rushed preparation and occasionally a kiss
how many things we so often miss
why not reminisce like back in the day
when boys and girls would laugh as they went about their play
and mothers and fathers would still get along
and every American would sing the proud song
"For the land of the free, and the home of the brave"
why aren't things now like things in the old days?
