~Country Road~ Long ago when I was born Not many things we had Depression hit us very hard Our life was pretty sad. We didn't have much money Our food was rationed too But lot's of love we always had Hard work was all we knew. Drank water from a rain barrel Scrub board for washing clothes Cooked meals on a wood stove Hard to believe those days I suppose. Living in the country Paved roads not everywhere Radio was the amusement Telephones were very rare. A car was a huge luxury Most clothes were made by hand Air conditioning was unheard of Few families had a fan. Times were hard for everyone Yet families were very close I'd live that life again if I could That was when we had the most. © July 30 2004 Journey Of Love Used with permission. Alternate Emailer!
