Songtext von That Was Us

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
