[00:01.00]Emerson Drive - That Was Us
[00:02.00]
[00:16.45]There's an old abandoned warehouse on the way into town
[00:20.38]Broken out glass still lays on the ground
[00:24.63]That old 69 Buicks still stuck in that field
[00:28.46]There's some back seat stories in those rusted out wheels
[00:32.11]And there's Joe's Mini Mart man that poor guy has seen
[00:36.28]His share of shoplifters and fake Ids
[00:40.09]There's a crop of new freshman running out Coach Riley's plays
[00:44.21]Hes a madman with a whistle yeah hell blow it in your face
[00:47.83]In that high school gym there's a banner on the wall
[00:51.73]A trophy in a case and the plaque says it all
[00:55.61]
[00:55.81]That was us havin' fun, who say youth is wasted on the young
[01:03.43]Glory days come and go, so we just made the most of the years
[01:08.69]That we call growin' up, that was us
[01:13.30]
[01:19.29]Between rivalries and our hometown pride
[01:23.22]Sits Delmar's Diner on the county line
[01:27.23]One wrong word and our fists would fly
[01:31.26]After football games on a Friday night
[01:34.93]The cops didn't bother to wait for a call
[01:39.13]They just showed up ready for a small town brawl
[01:42.90]
[01:43.09]That was us havin' fun, who say youth is wasted on the young
[01:50.65]Glory days come and go, so we just made the most of the years
[01:55.79]That we call growin' up, that was us
[02:00.41]
[02:02.81]Alcohol on your breath, mama worried to death
[02:06.37]Muscle cars breakin' hearts, even some of em ours
[02:10.39]Petty and straight on the same cassette tape
[02:14.60]Fallin' in love or in lust, that was us
[02:20.23]
[02:24.56]That was us havin' fun, who say youth is wasted on the young
[02:31.93]Glory days come and go, so we just made the most of the years
[02:37.01]That we call growin' up, that was us
