Before We Knew They Were Good

(الألبوم: Drinks After Work - 2013)

Five young guns, four old Fords between us
Never more than a couple of 'em run at a time
Bold and bored, standing and gasolining
Making sparks with anything we could find
We love that town but we were seventeeners
Riding around giving it the finger

[Chorus:]
Those days we made it last all night
Those girls we thought were just all right
Those kids that town misunderstood
They were great before we knew they were good

Sweating in the sun 'cuz having fun takes money
Paid for our crazy cutting grass
Waiting on the front porch
For little miss milk and honey
Smelling like Marlboros and lawnmower gas
We parked that Galaxy out there where the milo grew
Two beginners trying to show each other what they knew

[Repeat Chorus]

Caged birds singing, waiting on their wings and learning to fly
One day they're on the ground and then you turn around
They're all in the sky

[Repeat Chorus]

Before we knew they were good
They were great
