Looking Forward to the Past -Tommy Emmanuel/Rodney Crowell
Written by：Rodney Crowell
There's a girl I use to know about three broken hearts ago
I married her and left her in the dark
Vicksburg has her now and I'm headed there somehow
For to see if I can kindle that old spark
She had that Louisiana sizzle
She had that sleepy southern sass
I split the blanket down the middle
Since then it's all been downhill fast
I'm looking forward to the past
I'm a Mississippi man and a Conway Twitty
And I haven't heard a song I like in years
I drive a po boy truck
And I make an honest buck
And I'll be ready when my savor reappears
If you want to think I'm dumb and lazy
Judge me entirely without class
But if you knew how momma raised me
You'd know it's you that comes off crass
I'm looking forward to the past
He who lives and learns can renegotiate the terms
On a freakin frackin future full of carbon copy crap
The stakes are through the roof but there's very little proof
We can find fresh food and water somewhere out there off the map
Well I cut my teeth on hurt
And I've slung my share of dirt
And I blame myself for everything gone wrong
But what's done is done they say
And if there's hell we have to pay
I might admit I must have known it all along
I don't know two nickels from a quarter
I don't know my shirt tail from my eyes
This modern worlds so out of order
I don't know just how long it can last
But I'm looking forward to the past
I'm looking forward to the past
