[00:00.00]1929 - Merle Haggard
[00:08.68]All my life I've heard about hard depression days
[00:16.17]They so resemble times we're living now
[00:22.82]And old news of yesteryear sounds like yesterday
[00:30.34]And hunger lines always look the same somehow
[00:36.98]Are we living now or is it 1929
[00:44.04]A dollar bill ain't worth one thin dime
[00:51.19]And tricks are sometimes played upon the mind
[00:58.13]Are we living now or 1929
[01:05.59]Old songs tell about the way it was back then
[01:13.06]I think I've sung 'em all from time to time
[01:19.61]It looks like we are headed for the same old fall again
[01:26.80]But a hard depression blues would sure do fine
[01:33.95]Are we living now or is it 1929
[01:41.38]A dollar bill ain't worth one thin dime
[01:47.75]And tricks are sometimes played upon the mind
[01:55.15]Are we living now or 1929
[02:31.32]The devil's changed the candy flavor some
[02:37.43]Somehow we've gone to *** instead of wine
[02:44.92]But old skid row is still alive where the demons run
[02:51.67]Is it the eighties now or 1929
[02:59.06]Are we living now or is it 1929
[03:06.68]A dollar bill ain't worth one thin dime
[03:13.35]And tricks are sometimes played upon the mind
[03:20.17]Are we living now or 1929
