Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You had a blue jean jacket, a burned CD
Said you wanna go somewhere fast with me
I picked you up, yeah
And we turned it up
You had a broke heart necklace, post game smile
J Town front page news for awhile
Then we broke up
But I still turned it up
[Verse 2]
Cheerleading skirts and backseats
Free throws and church marquees
Kingsley countdown radio
Wouldn't know nothing if it weren't for
[Verse 3]
All those long nights and glory days
Between the Alpines and old King James
Yeah, the better they look
The sweeter they kiss
The shots you don't take
The shots you gonna miss
The faster the car
More money you burn
You laugh, you love, you live
There's a lot to learn
[Verse 4]
From speakers and bleachers and preachers
Story of my youth
Speakers and bleachers and preachers
Still got a lot of growing up to do
[Verse 5]
Kroger parking lot, battle scars
Black and mild on the dash under the stars
If daddy asks, they ain't mine
82 degrees on the bank sign
And hey hey, summer jams
Any Chesney song gonna make her dance
When the sun goes down, yeah
I think about her now
[Verse 6]
And all those long nights and glory days
Between the Alpines and old King James
Yeah, the better they look
The sweeter they kiss
The shots you don't take
The shots you gonna miss
The faster the car
More money you burn
You laugh, you love, you live
There's a lot to learn
[Verse 7]
From speakers and bleachers and preachers
Story of my youth
Speakers and bleachers and preachers
Still got a lot of growing up to do
[Verse 8]
Subs from my system rattling my rearview
Used to listen with my cousin I miss
He's gone now
It was the national anthem and a knee down prayer
We were acting like we weren't just like every other small town
[Verse 9]
Long nights and glory days
Between the Alpines and old King James
Yeah, the better they look
The sweeter they kiss
The shots you don't take
The shots you gonna miss
The faster the car
More money you burn
You laugh, you love, you live
There's a lot to learn
[Verse 10]
From speakers and bleachers and preachers
Story of my youth
Speakers and bleachers and preachers
Still got a lot of growing up to do
