There Was a Time Lyrics

There was a time

my friends became brothers

Everybody knew our names

A simple time

Watching the cars go by

Just was a way of life

We had the time of our lives

We had the time of our lives

When I look back

Music shaped our lives

with vinyl and 45s

We had it made

put chairs on the lawn

and partied dusk till dawn

Since that time

my friends have been brothers

loyal to this day.

Growing up in a small town

I wouldn’t trade it for the world

Street football and old cars

and talking to pretty girls

Play fast till your slow

Live young till your old

Play the cards that you're dealt

Bluff never fold

Think of your time

Not a care in the world

Just enjoying the ride.

Now is your time

Chase down your dreams

keep that fire inside

Growing up in a small town

I wouldn’t trade it for the world

Tailgates and Saturday nights

and talking to pretty girls

Play fast till your slow

Live young till your old

Break all the rules

Cause there’s no time to lose

As I drive through today

nobody knows my name

No football no rock and roll

our streets aren’t the same.

Growing up in a small town

I wouldn’t trade it for the world

Poker games on Saturday nights

and chasing down those girls

Play fast till your slow

Live young till your old

Our memories of that time

are the best of our lives

It’s about time ……
