Lyrics
Do you find yourself believin’ All the stuff that you are reading It was better back then than it is now That’s life its greener on the other side I was a man of simple pleasures I was a man of small endeavors An older guy took my girl That’s life, Its greener on the other side Hey old man Don’t waste my time, hating on the world Telling of the days Other than today Back then the food was cheaper And taste so much better I really don’t like this day and age That’s life, Its greener on the other side The women looked so pretty Classy and committed Now they’ve lost there edge and style That’s life its greener on the other side Hey old man Don’t waste my time, hating on the world Telling of the days Other than today Im just a boy Looking through a lense Of 16 years of life Its better than what you say and that’s for sure The wage was less but stronge And boys they worked much harder What they say they gave away That’s life its greener on the side Things now are dark and dingy And the air is breathe in Kid you got a lot to fear That’s life its greener on the other side
