Texty: Toby Keith. Honkytonk University. As Good As I Once Was.


She said, "ive seen you in here before."
I said, "Ive been here at ime or two."
She said, "Hello, my
name is bobby jo
meet my twin sister Better Lou
and we're both feeling kinda wild tonight
and you're the only cowboy in this place
and if you're up for a rodeo
we'll put a big Texas smile on
your face"
i said, "Girls,"

[Chorus]
i aint as good as i once was
i got a few years on me now
but there was a time back in my prime

when i could really lay it down
and if you need some love tonight
then i might have just enough
i aint as good as i once was
but im as good once as i ever was

i still hang out with my best friend dave
ive known him since we were kids at school
last night he
had a shots
got in a tight spot hustlin' a game of pool
with a couple of readneck boys
one great
big bad biker man
i heard David yell across the room
"hey buddy, how 'bout a helping hand."
i said, "Dave,"

[Chorus]
i aint as good as i once was
my how the years have flown
but there was a time back in my prime

whne i could really hold my own
but if you wanna fight tonight
guess thouse boys dont look all that
tough
i aint as good as i once was
but im as good once as i ever was

i used to be hell on wheels
back when i was younger man
now my body says, "you cant do this boy"

but my pride says, "oh, yes you can

i aint as good as i once was
thats just the cold hard truth
i still throw a few back, talk a little smack
when im feelin bullet proof
so dont double dog dare me now
'cause id have to call your bluff

i aint as good as i once was
but im as good once as i ever was
maybe not be good as i once was
but im as good once as i ever was
