Looking back now, well it makes me laugh
We were growin our hair, we were cuttinâ class
Knew it all already, there was nothing to learn
We were strikinâ matches just to watch Îem burn

Listen to our music just a little too loud
We were hanginâ in there with the outcast crowd
Headinâ to the rapids with some discount beer
It was a long train tussle but we had no fear.

Man I donât know, where the time goes
But It sure goes fast, just like that
We were wanna be rebels who didnât have a clue
With our Rock nâ roll T-shirts, and our typically bad attitudes
Had no excuses for the things that weâd done
We were brave, we were crazy, we were mostly Young

Talked a good game when we were out with the guys
But in the back seat we were awkward and shy
Girls were a mystery that we couldnât explain
And I guess there are some things that are never gonna change

Man I donât know, where the time goes
But it sure goes fast, just like that
We were wanna be rebels who didnât have a clue
With our Rock nâ roll T-shirts, and our typically bad attitudes
Had no excuses for the things that weâd done
We were brave, we were crazy, we were mostly Young
Young, Young, Yeah Wishinâ we were older
Young, Hey I wish it wasnât over

Man I donât know, where the time goes
But it sure goes fast, just like that
We were wanna be rebels who didnât have a clue
With our Rock nâ roll T-shirts, and our typically bad attitudes
Had no excuses for the things that weâd done
We were brave, we were crazy, we were mostly Young
Young, Hey wishinâ we were older, wish it wasnât over
