[Verse 1]
It wasn't that long ago
Springsteen on stereo
Holdin' hands on the hood of my truck
Yeah, we thought we were all grown up
Midnight in a parkin' lot
Hearts tied up in a knot
Wonder what you're up to now
Did you ever make it out?
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't know it's gone 'til it goes
And you hear a song that you used to know
Way back then, way back when
[Chorus]
We were just seventeen in a GMC, burnin' up some Texas street
Just young and wild when you were slidin' close on my bench seat
We drove like we stole it
Days that were golden
And nights wе won't ever outlive
Wе were just kids
[Verse 2]
Half of my memories
Are you holdin' on to me?
Somewhere where the stars still shine
Hell yeah, I go back sometime
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't know it's gone 'til it goes
And you hear a song that you used to know
Way back then, way back when
[Chorus]
We were just seventeen in a GMC, burnin' up some Texas street
Just young and wild when you were slidin' close on my bench seat
We drove like we stole it
Days that were golden
And nights we won't ever outlive
We were just kids
[Bridge]
'Bout to catch fire
Just spendin' our time
We were just, we were just, we were just kids
Goin' nowhere
Yeah, I wish I could go back there
We were just, we were just, we were just
[Chorus]
Seventeen in a GMC, burnin' up some Texas street
Just young and wild when you were slidin' close on my bench seat
We drove like we stole it
Days that were golden
And nights we won't ever outlive
We were just kids
[Outro]
('Bout to catch fire, just spendin' our time)
We were just kids
(We were just, we were just)
We were just kids
(Goin' nowhere, wish I could go back there)
(We were just, we were just)
We were just kids
