Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, I remember seventeen years old I'd drive forward speedin' down those old back roads And not a care in the world got to me It felt good to be wild and free Me and my friends thought it would last forever [Chorus] We were the young and the restless We didn't listen to what they'd tell us We just held on to our dreams No matter how distant they seemed We were wild and we were reckless Only the good Lord could help us It was back when we were the young and the restless [Verse 2] Time has passed and my friends have moved away But I still think about 'em every day When I look back, I can't believe We made it through those times to see All the crazy things we did together [Chorus] When we were the young and the restless We didn't listen to what they'd tell us We just held on to our dreams No matter how distant they seem We were wild and we were reckless Only the good Lord could help us It was back when we were the young and the restless [Outro] Yeah, we were wild and we were reckless Only the good Lord could help us It was back when we were the young and the restless
