BACK WHEN WE WERE YOUNG (Tom T. Hall) Tom T. Hall - 1973 Back when we were young Ev'rybody came to see us Ev'rybody wanted to be us Back when we were young We loved each other so All our friends told one another And we even told each other Back when we were young It was laughin' it was dancin' It was cigarettes and bourbon flavoured kisses It was alligator shoes and new blue suits And anything that money wishes It was sittin' up all night and waitin' For the dawn to bring another wondrous day It was holdin' hands and thinkin' That tomorrow is a million years away Back when we were young Ev'rybody came to see us Ev'rybody wanted to be us Back when we were young We loved each other so All our friends told one another And we even told each other Back when we were young It was rollin' sevens every time And thinkin' it was never ever gonna end Back then we even thought of time itself As bein' something of a passing friend It was buyin' one another things we didn't need And birthdays were so corny Back then we even had some friends Lived as far away as California Back when we were young (Transcribed by Mel Priddle - April 2012)
