Lyrics
0:13Living hard was easy when I was young and bullet-proof
0:20I had no chains to bind me just a guitar and a roof
0:28Emptied every bottle when I poured I never missed
0:35I had blood shot eyes at twenty-five or was it twenty-six
0:47Didn't seem to matter what price I had to pay
0:53Cause anything worth having I'd just lose anyway
1:02Friends worried about me they'd asked if I was sick
1:08Thought I wouldn't die at twenty-five or was it twenty-six
1:16Those two years run together like whiskey over ice
1:23Melted into memories like somebody else's life
1:31I'm glad to say I've come around
1:35But if I could have one wish
1:40I'd like another try at twenty-five
1:45Or was it twenty-six
2:00Met a girl from georgia smart and pretty college grad
2:07I thought my luck was changing but then it all went bad
2:15I guess I fell in love with her all it took was just one kiss
2:21But then she said goodbye at twenty-five or was it twenty-six
2:30Those two years run together like whiskey over ice
2:37Melted into memories like somebody else's life
2:45I'm glad to say I've come around
2:48But if I could have one wish
2:53I'd like another try at twenty-five
2:59Or was it twenty-six
3:13I've been down that road before almost as far as hell
3:20Deception or redemption I guess only time will tell
3:28I have faith and the knowledge that god gave us a gift
3:35I couldn't hide at twenty-five or was it twenty-six
3:43Those two years run together like whiskey over ice
3:50Melted into memories like somebody else's life
3:58I'm glad to say I've come around
4:01But if I could have one wish
4:06I'd like another try at twenty-five
4:12Or was it twenty-six
Living hard was easy when I was young and bullet-proof I had no chains to bind me just a guitar and a roof Emptied every bottle when I poured I never missed I had blood shot eyes at twenty-five or was it twenty-six Didn't seem to matter what price I had to pay Cause anything worth having I'd just lose anyway Friends worried about me they'd asked if I was sick Thought I wouldn't die at twenty-five or was it twenty-six Those two years run together like whiskey over ice Melted into memories like somebody else's life I'm glad to say I've come around But if I could have one wish I'd like another try at twenty-five Or was it twenty-six Met a girl from georgia smart and pretty college grad I thought my luck was changing but then it all went bad I guess I fell in love with her all it took was just one kiss But then she said goodbye at twenty-five or was it twenty-six Those two years run together like whiskey over ice Melted into memories like somebody else's life I'm glad to say I've come around But if I could have one wish I'd like another try at twenty-five Or was it twenty-six I've been down that road before almost as far as hell Deception or redemption I guess only time will tell I have faith and the knowledge that god gave us a gift I couldn't hide at twenty-five or was it twenty-six Those two years run together like whiskey over ice Melted into memories like somebody else's life I'm glad to say I've come around But if I could have one wish I'd like another try at twenty-five Or was it twenty-six
