Pontiacs

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Growin' up we had it good A Safe neighborhood, chain [?] Baseball field I would grab my ball and bat My glove and hat and I'd hop on my two wheels The sun would set around seven, batter up it's time to play I can remember it all like just yesterday [Verse 2] Pick up trucks and Pontiacs Took the place of swinging bats and girls became the ones to blame Sneaking out and sneaking around Trying not to make a sound and talking late And tempting fate I remember my first time in the back of a Chevrolet I can remember it all like just yesterday [Chorus] Now I look back with a thought Is that as good as it got? The way I feel is all too real I wonder where I went off track Still hung up on looking back Now I don't know just where to go So here I sit with a song of nostalgia to be sung And I'd give anything for one more day of being young One more day of being young One more day of being young [Verse 3] Before I knew it I was gone To junior college and withdrawn I felt alone So far from home I found myself a warehouse shift Where my mind would only drift to baseball days and girls in spades And I didn't have a bill to pay or a reason to be low And I didn't seek salvation in a glass of old crow [Chorus] Now I look back with the thought Is that as good as it got? The way I feel is all too real I wonder where I went off track Still hung up on looking back Now I don't know just where to go So here I sit with a song of nostalgia to be sung I'd give anything for one more day of being young One more day of being young One more day of being young [Verse 4] Now here I sit at 29 With these memories of mine and years to go Things to know I know it's highs and it's lows And it's not always what you chose but time and place in finding grace As I look back on the house, the young days of my youth Every day i am closer to finding the truth
