Brantley Gilbert - Back in the Day lyrics

rate me

Mamma, she's still got that picture

Of me and Katie on homecomin' night

She looked pretty in that fancy dress

But that girl was a barefoot blue jean princess

A hand full of rocks and daddy's pine ladder

Sure did come in handy

For a teenage boy thinkin' all that mattered

Was a kiss that taste like candy

Back in the day we were wild and free

She was my dashboard drummer

Butterflies in the backseat

Little footprints on my window

Parkin' my Chevy by the riverside

And four letters in a heart carved in a pine

A little sun dress layin up there on the bank

While the water washed our innocence away

Back in the day

Friday nights I'd look up there in the bleachers

And I can see her, with my letter man's jacket on

And I still got this scar here on my right hand

From when Bobby told her she deserved a better man

Aw.. She hung right with me down in panama city

Raisin' hell on our senior trip and man ain't it funny it gets the best of me

And I just can't forget

I just can't forget

Back in the day we were wild and free

She was my dashboard drummer

Butterflies in the backseat

Little footprints on my window

Parkin' my Chevy by the riverside

And four letters in a heart carved in a pine

A little sun dress layin up there on the bank

While the water washed our innocence away

Back in the day

Summer was over

College was callin' man I had to watch her leave

But I still wonder if she ever thinks of me

Back in the day we were wild and free

She was my dashboard drummer

Butterflies in the backseat

Little footprints on my window

Parkin' my Chevy by the riverside

And four letters in a heart carved in a pine

A little sun dress layin up there on the bank

While the water washed our innocence away

Feels like yesterday

Back in the day

Back in the day<br />

<br />
