Travis Tritt - Sign of the Times lyrics

(Travis Tritt) My daddy told me stories about How this country was when I was just a kid How people took the time to care And took a lot of pride in the things they did And I can't help but wonder What happened to that spirit Down through the years It is something we have forgotten Or something that we just don't want to hear 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 compa**ion to The problems in each other's 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 If you need to borrow money now They want to know how many a**ets 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 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 compa**ion to The problems in each other's 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 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 compa**ion to The problems in each other's 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 And I wish I could change the things I see In the signs of the times
