We snuck in the back of that college town frat 'Cause they wouldn't let us in the front
Threw their Miller Time keg in a Chevrolet bed And we let them horses run
Cut a path through the grass yelling, "Kiss my ass!" With a middle finger in the wind
We laughed, we drank, every now and then I think Man, I'd love to do that again
* Those were some good times Those were the best nights
The freedom ya feel when you're learning to fly
And the song on the radio was singing our lives
I can't say that the moon in the sky was shinin' any brighter than it is tonight
But it looked on fire back then It probably wasn't, but it seemed a little better back when
Gravel lot spot by the porta johns 'Bout a quarter mile from the door
Worked three weeks for a pair of cheap seats To hear "Never Wanted Nothing More"
We were feeling that buzz from a summertime love And a bottle tucked in a boot
It's crazy to think that looking back now But back then, we never knew
( * )
I ain't sayin' that right now ain't right where I wanna be
ut I swear time adds a little shine to a long-gone memory
