Rhett Akins

Better Than It Used To Be

Now it ain't like me to talk about the way my woman makes me feel

But since you asked and I've got a minute well gentlemen here's the deal

If I told it's as good as this or that you might misunderstand

So let me give you all a little idea of what's it's better than

It's better than whiskey when you're cold

Better than your favorite song on the radio

Better than a feather bed when you've been loving all night

And you've got to get some rest

Better than punching out on payday

And cruise control down the highway

It's a whole lot better than it used to be

And it used to be the best

Now I've seen love that started to fade soon after that first kiss

But let me make it clear right now that ain't the case with this

It started out good, started getting better it never has slowed down

And it's better than a bunch of you buying me another round

It's better than whiskey when you're cold

Better than your favorite song on the radio

Better than a feather bed when you've been loving all night

And you've got to get some rest

Better than punching out on payday

And cruise control down the highway

It's a whole lot better than it used to be

And it used to be the best

Lordy, Lord I love that woman of mine

And what we've got has got to be one hundred times better than

It's better than whiskey when you're cold

Better than your favorite song on the radio

Better than a feather bed when you've been loving all night

And you've got to get some rest

Better than punching out on payday

And cruise control down the highway

It's a whole lot better than it used to be

And it used to be the best

Yeah, it's a whole lot better than it used to be

And it used to be the best
