I remember the summer I turned sixteen
And that old jalopy daddy gave to me
It had holes in the floor and just a 305
But I didn`t care `cause I could finally drive
There wasn`t much to do in my hometown
So every weekend night we would all go down.
Chorus:
There were freaks and hippies in my high school
Football players all tryin` to be cool
And everbody scramblin` to hide their beer
When the cops dove by `til the coast was clear
Kids fallin in and out of love
On hoods of Chevys in beds of trucks
We were stumblin` our way through senior year
But man we sure did learn alot
In that Walmart parking lot.
She had long blonde hair and sea-green eyes
The most beautiful thing I`d ever seen in my life
But I was young and dumb and didn`t have a line
And all I could say is, Can I call you sometime?
She just said, No and walked away
And that was the first time I felt my heart break.
Chorus:
There were freaks and hippies in my high school
Football players all tryin` to be cool
And everbody scramblin` to hide their beer
When the cops dove by `til the coast was clear
Kids fallin in and out of love
On hoods of Chevys in beds of trucks
We were stumblin` our way through senior year
But man we sure did learn alot
In that Walmart parking lot.
Yeah, we did a lot of livin`
It was a small town teenage heaven.
Chorus:
There were freaks and hippies in my high school
Football players all tryin` to be cool
And everbody scramblin` to hide their beer
When the cops dove by `til the coast was clear
Kids fallin in and out of love
On hoods of Chevys in beds of trucks
We were stumblin` our way through senior year
But man we sure did learn alot
In that Walmart parking lot.
Well, I had my first kiss, my first love
Got my ass kicked but I got back up
Lost my way, found it again
Had one long buz and dozen best friends
In that Walmart parking lot.
In that Walmart parking lot...
