[Verse 1]
Sixteen, took a sip of brown liquor with a 7 on the label
At eighteen, man, I couldn't be beat on that Alabama beer pong table
I've had nights I won't forget, but some nights I wish I could
I thought we were just partying, maybe I miss understood
[Chorus]
I used to know when to stop, had it under control
'Til that Jack on the rocks started taking a toll
It's just a drink with the guys and then you're drunk by yourself
Ignoring all of the signs on the highway to Hell
Used to be fun, but now I'm wondering why
I've been acting twenty-one for half of my life
It is what it is, but it ain't what it was
Whatever happened and went, it was just a buzz
[Verse 2]
It's all fun and games 'til it takes half a case
Just to feel a little something in the evenings
I could've slowed down, but it's too late now
I'm giving into every little reason
Lord knows I need to quit, but hell if I know where to start
My mama says it ain't right here in this old bar
[Chorus]
I used to know when to stop, had it under control
'Til that Jack on the rocks started taking a toll
It's just a drink with the guys and then you're drunk by yourself
Ignoring all of the signs on the highway to Hell
Used to be fun, but now I'm wondering why
I've been acting twenty-one for half of my life
It is what it is, but it ain't what it was
Whatever happened and went, it was just a buzz
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I used to know when to stop, had it under control
'Til that Jack on the rocks started taking a toll
It's just a drink with the guys and then you're drunk by yourself
Ignoring all of the signs on the highway to Hell
Used to be fun, but now I'm wondering why
I've been acting twenty-one for half of my life
It is what it is, but it ain't what it was
Whatever happened and went, it was just a buzz
[Outro]
Whatever happened and went, it was just a buzz
