When You're Just A Kid

Sometimes I smile

When I think back to then

Sneekin out for a while

To go fishin again

Thought we'd never get caught

But we always did

Aw that's the kind of thing that you thought

When you're just a kid

We turned an ordinary pond

Into an ocean far and wide

An old abandoned car became a shiny new ride

The tracks became a launchin pad for a rocketship

That we hid from dad

And all the times that we ran and hid

Aw that's the kind of thing that ya did

When you're just a kid

Now that I'm a man

I long for simple days

Times of big dreams, we just get carried away

I always wondered some day, what I'd say to my kids

If they asked me all the things that I did

When I was a kid

We turned an ordinary pond

Into an ocean far and wide

An old abandoned car became a shiny new ride

The tracks became a launchin pad for a rocketship

That we hid from dad

And all the times that we ran and hid

Aw that's the kind of thing that ya did

When you're just a kid

Meetings and deadlines take a toll on me

The stress of our jobs raisin a family

I got two boys, they get that look like I did

Sneakin round without a noise, just like me

When I was a kid

Hey, we turned an ordinary pond

Into an ocean far and wide

An old abandoned car became a shiny new ride

The tracks became a launchin pad for a rocketship

That we hid from dad

And all the times that we ran and hid

Aw that's the kind of thing that ya did

yeah that's the kinda thing that ya did

When you're just a kid

Yeah just a kid

I remember …….

I was just a kid

Yeah
