Back

its funny how the years have gone by
they aren't kiddin when they say time flies
now i'm all grown up
and yeah life gets a little tough
but you'll never hear me complain
but i cant help but miss the good ole days
staring at an old photograph
and it takes me back

to when we use to live for friday night
watchin our boys under them stadium lights
when we'd try to show off for the girls
just hopin for a kiss
its crazy all the things i miss
like me and her sittin on my tailgate
out by the lake
sometimes i wish i could go again
to back when

we all grow
and grow apart
gain some scars on our hearts
memories fade away
day after day
we love and we lose
try to fill our parents shoes
try to make ends meat
and stay on our feet
staring at an old photograph
and it takes me back

to when we use to hit every mud hole in sight
cover my old jeep
and try to keep
from rolling that thing
when we'd crank a Strait song and sing
when we'd light a bonfire
throw on some gasoline and let that thing burn higher
back when we'd get a little crazy
yeah momma use to pray the good lord would save me
sometimes i wish i could go again
to back when

i love the way i'm livin
and i'm givin
it all i got
somedays it aint a lot
but sometimes i stare at old photographs
and want to go back

to when we use to live for friday night
watchin our boys under them stadium lights
when we'd try to show off for the girls
just hopin for a kiss
its crazy all the things i miss
when we'd light a bonfire
throw on some gasoline and let that thing burn higher
back when we'd get a little crazy
yeah momma use to pray the good lord would save me
sometimes i wish i could go again
to back when
