Back When We Were Gods
|
|
Yeah me Jim and Dan we were all best friends
|
Riding off like cowboys on a road that never ends
|
We knew it was our last time for the time of our lives....
|
|
See Dan was getting married
|
Jim was going to desert storm
|
I was heading off to college
|
Moving into a dorm
|
So we took off in that old hot rod
|
Back when we were gods.
|
|
(chorus)
|
You couldn't tell us nothing
|
We didnt already know
|
And if the sign said off limits
|
You could bet we would go
|
A hundred miles an hour nonstop
|
Back when we were gods.
|
|
There were Arizona troopers
|
Trailing close behind
|
We knew they couldn't touch us
|
Once we crossed the state line
|
So we pulled over and showed them a Tennessee moon
|
From the California side.
|
|
?????? was a nightmare, Vegas was a dream
|
Dan had won more money than we had ever seen
|
Didnt take us one day to blow the whole lot
|
Yeah back when we were gods.
|
|
(chorus)
|
|
We thought we were invinsable
|
Couldnt nothing bring us down
|
But it didn't take long
|
For the real world to knock us flat on the ground
|
And I hope we were forgiven for all the crazy things we did
|
After all we were just kids
|
|
(chorus)
