Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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, he was walking out
We went back inside sat down had a few drinks
But, all he kept talking about was
[Verse 2]
Glory days, they'll pass you by
Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days, glory days
[Verse 3]
Well there's a girl that lives up the block
Back in school she could turn all the boy's heads
Sometimes on a Friday I'll stop by
And have a few drinks before she put the kids to bed
Her and her husband Bobby they split up
I guess it's two years gone by now
Ohh, we just sit around talking about the old times
She says when she feels like crying
She starts laughing thinking about
[Verse 4]
Glory days, they'll pass you by
Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days, glory days
[Verse 5]
Now I think I'm going down to the well tonight
I'm going to drink 'till I get my fill
And I hope when I get old I don't sit around talking about it
But I know I probably will
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
Little of the glory of, time slips away
And leaves you nothing mister but
Boring stories of
[Verse 6]
Glory days, they'll pass you by
Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days, glory days
[Verse 7]
Glory, glory days, they'll pass you by
Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days, glory days, yeah
