Album: Best That I Could

Cherry Bomb

Well I lived on the outskirts of town
In an eight room farmhouse, baby
When my brothers and friends were around
There was always somethin´ doin´
Had me a couple of real nice girlfriends
Stopped by to see me every once in a while
When I think back about those days
All I can do is sit and smile
CHORUS:
That´s when sport was a sport
And groovin´ was groovin´
And dancin´ meant everything
We were young and we were improvin´
Laughtin´ laughtin´ with our friends
Holding hands meant somethin´ baby
Outside the club ";Cherry Bomb";
Where our hearts were really thumpin´
Say yeah yeah yeah
Say yeah yeah yeah
The winter days they last forever
And the weekends went by so quick
We ridin´ around this little country town
We were goin´ nuts, girl, out in the stick
One night me with my big mouth
A couple guys had to put me in my place
When I see those guys these days
We just laugh and say
Remember when
CHORUS:
That´s when sport was a sport
And groovin´ was groovin´
And dancin´ meant everything
We were young and we were improvin´
Laughtin´ laughtin´ with our friends
Holding hands meant somethin´ baby
Outside the club ";Cherry Bomb";
Where our hearts were really thumpin´
Say yeah yeah yeah
Say yeah yeah yeah
Seventeen has turned thirty-five
I´m surprised that we´re still livin´
If we´ve done any wrong
I hope that we´re forgiven
Got a few kids on my own
And some days I still don´t know
What to do
I hope that they´re not laughtin´ too
Loud, when they hear me talkin´ like This to you
CHORUS:
That´s when sport was a sport
And groovin´ was groovin´
And dancin´ meant everything
We were young and we were improvin´
Laughtin´ laughtin´ with our friends
Holding hands meant so much baby
Outside the club ";Cherry Bomb";
Where our hearts were really thumpin´
Say yeah yeah yeah
Say yeah yeah yeah
