About

A song lamenting how America isn't what she used to be.

Lyrics

Verse 1

Mama's photograph's still on the wall

Smiling like she did before the fall

Daddy sold the barn last Tuesday morn

Said the price of honest work is gone

Pre-Chorus

I look around this little town

And I can't help but break on down

Chorus

Our country's gone to hell and back again

Every sunrise feels like where we've been

Corn don't grow where the promises were made

Our country's gone to hell and it just ain't the same

Post-Chorus

Gone to hell

Gone to hell

Yeah it just ain't the same

Verse 2

Fences rust along the old dirt road

Neighbors wave but nobody really knows

The price of gas could buy a tiny home

Kids these days just pack their bags and roam

Pre-Chorus

I walk these empty county lines

Wondering where we lost our time

Chorus

Our country's gone to hell and back again

Every sunrise feels like where we've been

Corn don't grow where the promises were made

Our country's gone to hell and it just ain't the same

Post-Chorus

Gone to hell

Gone to hell

Yeah it just ain't the same

Bridge

Maybe someday the radio will play

Something other than our yesterday

Maybe someday the fields will turn back green

Maybe I can set my heart at ease

Chorus

Our country's gone to hell and back again

Every sunrise feels like where we've been

Corn don't grow where the promises were made

Our country's gone to hell and it just ain't the same

Post-Chorus

Gone to hell

Gone to hell

Yeah it just ain't the same
