Merle Haggard — Life’s Just Not the Way It Used to Be

[Chorus] Somehow things just never came together Fate had different plans for you and me Love used to be the most important thing in life But life's just not the way it used to be [Verse] If loving someone all the way Is gone for good with yesterday Then what am I? I'm just a fool who pays no mind I'm out of step and out of time And I want to die [Chorus] I love you so, but I don't know the answer And I know so well that you're in love with me Love used to be the most important thing in life But life's just not the way it used to be [Outro] No, life's just not the way it used to be
