Lyrics for Song: Better Part of Life
Lyrics for Album: My Tennessee Mountain Home (Bonus Track) [RCA Nash [2007]
(Dolly Parton)
We're all together once again for the first time in I don't know when
We were so close once upon a time
There were twelve of us kids at home six girls, six boys and Dad and Mom
But that was in the better part of life we left behind.
Remember that old swimming hole where we would swim so long ago
And all them possum grapes and muskedines
And do you recall the time we all got drunk on homemade wine
That was in the better part of life we left behind.
Life was simple for us then if only it could be again
How I wish we could go back in time
But time moves on and nothin' lasts except the memories from the past
Memories from the better part of life we left behind.
Remember how we talked as kids of what we'd be when we got big
And all the dreams that we held in our minds
I wanted to be a singin' star and you all said that I'd go far
But that was in the better part of life we left behind.
Remember all the fun we had back when they say times were bad
And life was good to us and things were fine
We had fun and we had love and a mom and dad to care for us
But that was is the better part of life we left behind.
Life was simple for us then if only it could be again
How I wish we could go back in time
But time moves on and nothin' lasts except the memories from the past
Memories from the better part of life we left behind.
Sweet memories from the better part of life we left behind...
