I had a friend was a big baseball player back in high school
|
He could throw that speedball by you
|
Make you look like a fool boy
|
Saw him the other night at this roadside bar I was walking in and he was walking out
|
We went back inside sat down, had a few drinks but all he kept talking about was
|
|
Glory days well they'll pass you by
|
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
|
Glory days, glory days
|
|
There's a girl that lives up the block back in school she could turn all the boys' heads
|
Sometimes on a Friday I'll stop by and have a few drinks after she put her kids to bed
|
Her and her husband Bobby well they split up
|
I guess it's two years gone by now
|
We just sit around talking about the old times, she says when she feels like crying she starts laughing thinking about
|
|
Glory days well they'll pass you by
|
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
|
Glory days, glory days
|
|
Think I'm going down to the well tonight and I'm going to drink till I get my fill
|
And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it but I probably will
|
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture a little of the glory of, but time slips away and leaves you with nothing mister but boring stories of glory days
|
|
Glory days well they'll pass you by
|
Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye
|
Glory days, glory days
|
