Pecos & the Rooftops
Yesteryear
[Intro]
Ready to take some shots, Kenzie, you are twenty-one
Let's get ready, shots, shots, shots
From the wall to the wall, let's dance, dance, dance

[Verse 1]
A calloused heart and a bottle on the shelf
She wrecked my mind and I wrecked my health
I stay lost and don't want to be found
People wonder why the hell I stuck around
Bad women, cheap booze, and rocky mountain weed
Livin' fast, caught up in the Lubbock breeze
I play my songs that nobody wants to hear
I'm treadin' in the muddy waters of yesteryear

[Pre-Chorus]
I got tired of the bullshit
And I wasn't gonna take it anymore
All that pointless late-night bitchin'
About shit that didn't even matter, I'm out the door

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm goin' to be me, live as a pioneer
I might be goin' all the wrong ways, but I ain't goin' to yesteryear
I ain't goin' to yesteryear
Yesteryear
[Verse 2]
I like adrenaline and I play my music loud
People often question my kind of outlaw crowd
But I'm singin' so the whole damn world can hear
That I ain't ever goin' back to yesteryear

[Chorus]
Well, I'm goin' to be me, live as a pioneer
I might be goin' all the wrong ways, but I ain't goin' to yesteryear
But karma's a wicked lady, baby, the Devil's always here
But the cheatin' heart has told on you, my dear
I ain't ever goin' back to yesteryear, yesteryear
