Travis Tritt - Sign Of The Times lyrics

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've 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 compassion to

The problems in each other's lives

We're more concerned with making money

Than staying home loving 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 wanna know how many assets 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

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 compassion to

The problems in each other's lives

We're more concerned with making money

Than staying home loving 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 compassion to

The problems in each other's lives

We're more concerned with making money

Than staying home loving our family.

Now I wish I could change the things I see

In the signs of the times

I wish I could change the things I see

In the signs of the times
