That Was Us

(album: Wild Ones - 2015)

Me and Teddy Used to burn that old Chevy
All the way out to Mary Lee's
One of the guy's the kind that ride or die
And we were thick as thieves

The whole damn town said, when we come around
We're as mean as a four letter word
Up to no good fun.
No, we didn't have much,
Just a whole lotta time to burn

[Chorus:]
So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us

We crossed the county line for a kegger one night
There were some girls we had never seen
Teddy had his eye locked on a dime
Mary said that she was looking at me

Standing there sipping on a smoke
And a cheap-ass bottle of rum
She said, "My name's Katie, you're my kinda crazy.
And it takes one to know one."

So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us

Mary Lee started hanging, started talking
With a boy with a checkered past
It wasn't long 'fore he showed his true colors
And they left her all blue and black

Cops stopped us running 90
With a loaded pistol and a bottle of booze
And it's a good damn thing them blue lights got us
'Fore we did what we was gonna do

So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us

If we got high, yeah, you know, we're gonna roll it up
If we got high, yeah, you know, we got stoned
If there was a fight then, you know, we're gonna pack a punch
If there was a fight, we got it on

In the back of the seat, you know, we got tangled up
In the back of the seat, you know, we made love
That was then and that's still us

Well, come on
