They Don't Make Them Like They Used To (also referred to as They Don't Make 'Em...) is the nineteenth studio album by American country music artist Kenny Rogers, released in 1986 through RCA Records. The album hit the top 20 on the country charts (and crossed over into the pop Billboard 200) with the single "Twenty Years Ago" peaked at number two.

The title track was used as the theme song to the box office hit movie Tough Guys and released as a single at the end of 1986. The song only reached number 53 in the country charts although it did well by hitting the Top 10 and Top 20 on the adult contemporary charts. The song "You're My Love" was written by Prince under the pseudonym "Joey Coco" and features El DeBarge on backing vocals.[1]
