Lyrics
Back Then
Copyright 2007 – Todd Swain
When I saw you at the Dairy Queen that day
I thought you were the most beautiful thing I had ever seen
And I told myself then that you’d be my girl
A quick stop at the Gas-N-Go
Then it’s off to Beaver Lake in my GTO
She wasn’t much to look at but I sure do miss that old car
I finally got the nerve to ask you out
The queen of my dreams and there wasn’t a doubt
The future was bright and laid out like a blanket for you and me
We were young then the wind in our hair
Cruising down the highway like we hadn’t a care
Isn’t it funny how simple it was back then
Friday night dances and a swim in the pool
A matinee movie skipping school
Sure it funny how simple it was back then
I played baseball you played in the band
We went to the prom walking hand in hand
They voted us king and queen that night how bout that
The graduation trip we made to the beach
Everything was possible and nothing out of reach
Life was wide open and there for the taking for you and me
We were young then the wind in our hair
Cruising down the highway like we hadn’t a care
Isn’t it funny how simple it was back then
Friday night dances and a swim in the pool
A matinee movie skipping school
Sure it funny how simple it was back then
(Break)
We were young then the wind in our hair
Cruising down the highway like we hadn’t a care
Isn’t it funny how simple it was back then
Friday night dances and a swim in the pool
A matinee movie skipping school
Sure it funny how simple it was back then
Old hotrods and some good rock and roll
Hugging at the drive in so we didn’t get cold
Isn’t it funny how simple it was back then
Reading field and stream in the barbers chair
Taking our turn on the Bullet at the county fair
Sure is funny how simple it was back then
Sure is funny how simple it was back then
