| Song | Ain't Nothin' Like It Used to Be |
| Artist | Steppenwolf |
| Album | Paradox |
| 作词 : Kay | |
| Words and music by John Kay | |
| One glass in the mornin', two shots at night | |
| Three fourths anytime that you wanna get tight | |
| Drink wine to remember, swill gin to forget | |
| And blame the world for the peace that you haven't found yet | |
| He stood at the bar with a bottle in his hand | |
| And he complained so bitterly 'bout a world he could not understand | |
| He said "All my life, I've hustled and paid to survive | |
| Say, can't you see, what's wrong with the world ain't me" | |
| Ain't nothing' like it used to be | |
| Ain't nothing' like it once was | |
| Ain't nothin' like it ought to be | |
| Ain't nothin' right no more | |
| One pill in the mornin', two joints at night | |
| Three spoons any time that you want to feel right | |
| Toot coke to remember, shoot smack to forget | |
| And blame the world for the life you haven't lived yet | |
| Get up in the mornin', give love at night | |
| And take time for yourself when you're losing the fight | |
| Take care to remember, it takes time to forget | |
| Thank God for the time that you haven't had yet |
