[Verse 1]
I remember very well when I was just a kid
Back when all we had was good and good was all we did
We'd wade the creek in summertime we'd swing on casing swings
Turn on daddy's radio and Bill Monroe would sing
[Chorus]
The taste of life we had was good we didn't know the bad
It was church on Sunday mornings us and mom and dad
And every night my mom would pray the Lord my soul to keep
And I know that's the reason why my taste of life is sweet
[Verse 2]
Love was nearly all we had but somehow we got by
For things they couldn't give us I've seen my momma cry
But as I think about it now I'm sure we had the best
We learned to work for more in life but how to do with less
[Chorus]
The taste of life we had was good we didn't know the bad
It was church on Sunday mornings us and mom and dad
And every night my mom would pray the Lord my soul to keep
And I know that's the reason why my taste of life is sweet
The taste of life we had was good we didn't know the bad
It was church on Sunday mornings us and mom and dad
And every night my mom would pray the Lord my soul to keep
And I know that's the reason why my taste of life is sweet
[Outro]
In the sweet (In the sweet) by and by (By and by)
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
