Four squeezed in on a bench seat
Five holding on the bed
Slip Joe's older brother a 20, that was plenty
For a case of beer and a pack of Reds
And we were set
We wore our jerseys on Fridays
Felt like kings of the world
Class ring hanging on a silver chain fro the neck of your girl

Hey, back when young and dumb was beautiful
We knew that we knew it all
No one could proves us wrong
Those were the days, couldn't wait to lose our innocence
Brag about it to our friends, Monday after prom
Swore we'd always be together, didn't know any better
Back when we thought we'd be 18 forever
18 forever

Back when freedom was a set of car keys
We were half a tank from anywhere
Yeah, I'm still wearing that memory on me
We got tattoos on a dare
We didn't care

Hey, back when young and dumb was beautiful
We knew that we knew it all
No one could proves us wrong
Those were the days, couldn't wait to lose our innocence
Brag about it to our friends, Monday after prom
Swore we'd always be together, didn't know any better
Back when we thought we'd be 18 forever
18 forever

Well its crazy how those fast times, ones you thought would always last times, turn into wish you had them back times

Hey, back when young and dumb was beautiful
We knew that we knew it all
No one could proves us wrong
Those were the days, couldn't wait to lose our innocence
Brag about it to our friends, Monday after prom
Swore we'd always be together, didn't know any better
Back when we thought we'd be 18 forever
18 forever
18 forever
