Author’s Note - Taken from "Open Road" 1970 - https://youtu.be/EnECuNw2wtM [Intro] [Verse 1] People used to get together round a fire Fishes were cooked songs were sang Moonlight used to guide our way home in the dark Do you find it hard remembering? [Chorus] And still you people tell me life is easy to get on with But what I’ve got so far’s enough to get along with People tell me that it’s so oh - oh I don’t know anymore I don’t know [Verse 2] People used to get together round a problem Eyes were looked at tongues were true People used to stop and say how do you do Do you find it hard remembering? [Chorus] And still you people tell me life is easy to get on with But what I’ve got so far’s enough to get along with People tell me that it’s so oh - oh I don’t know anymore I don’t know [Instrumental] X2 [Chorus] And still you people tell me life is easy to get on with But what I’ve got so far’s enough to get along with People tell me that it’s so oh - oh I don’t know anymore I don’t know [Verse 3] People used to spend an hour making tea Easy peasy was the rule People used to pause to think and contemplate He who hussled was the fool [Chorus] And still you people tell me life is easy to get on with But what I’ve got so far’s enough to get along with People tell me that it’s so oh - oh I don’t know anymore I don’t know anymore I don’t know anymore I don’t know
