    A Different World

    Bucky Covington

    We were born to mothers who smoked and drank

    Our cribs were covered in lead based paint

    No child proof lids no seat belts in cars

    Rode bikes with no helmets and still here we are, still here we are

    We got daddy’s belt when we misbehaved

    Had three TV channels you got up to change

    No video games and no satellite

    All we had were friends and they were outside, playin’ outside

    Chorus

    It was a different life

    When we were boys and girls

    Not just a different time

    It was a different world

    School always started the same every day

    The pledge of allegiance then someone would pray

    Not every kid made the team when they tried

    We got disappointed and that was all right, we turned out all right

    Chorus

    Bridge

    No bottled water, we drank from a garden hose

    And every Sunday, all the stores were closed

    Chorus

    Chorus

    It was a different world

    Bucky Covington isn't quite old enough to sing this song!!! I was born in the 60's and at that time doctors told pg moms NOT to quit smoking because that would be cruel to the mom. This song describes my childhood to a T ! Whoever wrote that song could have lived right there with me. (Wish I'd written it $$$$$!)
