MIRANDA LAMBERT- Automatic LYRICS

Quarter in a payphone,
Drying laundry on the line,
Watching sun tea in the window,
Pocket watch, telling time.
Seems like only yesterday I’d get a blank cassette,
Record the country countdown ‘cause I couldn’t buy it yet,

If we drove all the way to Dallas just to buy an Easter dress,
We’d take along Randy McNally, stand in line to pay for gas,
God knows that shifting gears ain’t what it used to be,
I learned to drive that 55 just like a queen,
Three on a tree

Hey, whatever happened to waiting your turn,
Doing it all by hand,
Cause when everything is handed to you
It’s only worth as much as the time put in,
It all just seems so good the way we had it
Back before everything became automatic

If you had something to say you’d write it on a piece of paper,
Then you’d Put a stamp on it and they’d get it three days later
Boys would call the girls, the girls would turn them down,
Staying married was the only way to work your problems out

Hey, whatever happened to waiting your turn,
Doing it all by hand,
Cause when everything is handed to you
It’s only worth as much as the time put in,
It all just seems so good the way we had it
Back before everything became automatic
Yeah,
Automatic

Let’s roll the windows down, windows with the cranks,
Come on let’s take a picture, the kind you gotta shake

Hey, whatever happened to waiting your turn,
Doing it all by hand,
Cause when everything is handed to you
It’s only worth as much as the time put in,
It all just seems so good the way we had it
Back before everything became automatic yeah,
Automatic
