That Was Us — текст песни (Tracy Lawrence)

Twenty dollars out of mama`s purse bought us a tank of gas

And some Redman tobacco when we was just teenage kids

Yeah me and my old buddy Leroy we`d go driving around

If there was trouble to be found man we dang sure did

Cuttin` doughnuts in the fields till Old Man Smith would call the cops

He`d come running out with a shotgun cause we was running down his crops

And I reckon he`s still wondering who that was that was us



Some of these local boys moved on but we never changed a bit

I don`t guess we had enough sense least that`s what some folks said

Yeah we finally turned old enough to buy our own beer

Don`t remember much about that year lucky we ain`t dead

Cause somebody said they saw some boys with a truck looked just like mine

Tryin` to pull down that old water tank sits out on the county line

And people wonder why it leans the way it does that was us



Seems like small towns never change but things get tough when times get hard

And they said when he got sick that Old Man Smith would`ve lost that farm

He was gettin` way behind on all his bills

Till someone came and brought his crops in from the fields

Yeah folks round here still don`t know who that was that was us



Cuttin` doughnuts on the fields till Old Man Smith would call the cops

He`d come runnin` out with a shotgun cause we was runnin` down his crops

Somebody said they saw some boys with a truck looked just like mine

Tryin` to pull down that old water tank sits out on the county line

That was us yeah that was us
