Lyrics
0:16Well I lived on the outskirts of town
0:22In an eight room farmhouse baby
0:26When my brothers and friends were around
0:31There was always somethin' doin'
0:35Had me a couple of real nice girlfriends
0:39Stopped by to see me every once in a while
0:43When I think back about those days
0:47All I can do is sit and smile
0:52That's when a smoke was a smoke
0:56And groovin' was groovin'
1:01And dancin' meant everything
1:04We were young and we were improvin'
1:08Laughin' laughin' with our friends
1:12Holdin' hands meant somethin' baby
1:17Outside the club 'Cherry Bomb'
1:21Our hearts were really thumpin'
1:24Say "Yeah yeah yeah"
1:28Say "Yeah yeah yeah"
1:38The winter days they last forever
1:42But the weekends went by so quick
1:46Went ridin' around this little country town
1:51We were goin' nuts girl out in the sticks
1:55One night me with my big mouth
1:58A couple guys had to put me in my place
2:03When I see those guys these days
2:07We just laugh and say "Do you remember when
2:12That's when a smoke was a smoke
2:16And groovin' was groovin'
2:21And dancin' meant everything "
2:25We were young and we were improvin'
2:28Laughin' laughin' with our friends
2:33Holdin' hands meant somethin' baby
2:37Outside the club 'Cherry Bomb'
2:41Our hearts were really thumpin'
2:43Say "Yeah yeah yeah"
2:48Say "Yeah yeah yeah"
2:52Alright
3:10Say "Yeah yeah yeah"
3:14Say "Yeah yeah yeah"
3:20Seventeen has turned thirty-five
3:24I'm surprised that we're still livin'
3:28If we've done any wrong
3:33I hope that we're forgiven
3:37Got a few kids of my own
3:41And some days I still don't know what to do
3:45I hope that they're not laughing too loud
3:49When they hear me talkin' like this to you
3:54That's when a smoke was a smoke
3:58And groovin' was groovin'
4:03And dancin' meant everything "
4:06We were young and we were improvin'
4:10Laughin' laughin' with our friends
4:15Holdin' hands meant so much baby
4:19Outside the club 'Cherry Bomb'
4:23Our hearts were really thumpin'
4:26Say "Yeah yeah yeah"
4:30Say "Yeah yeah yeah"
