7 Summers

Yeah, you used to talk about

Gettin' even further South

Somewhere where the summer lasted all year 'round

Probably got a big ol' diamond on your hand right now

Maybe a baby or a couple by now

Long driveway to a big white house

But I wonder when you're drinkin'

If you find yourself thinkin' about

That boy from East Tennessee

And I know we both knew better

But we still said, "Forever"

And that was seven summers

Of Coke and Southern Comfort

Were we dumb or just younger, who knows?

Back then you used to love the river

And sippin' on a sixer with me

Does it ever make you sad to know

That was seven summers ago?

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Yeah, I bet your daddy's so proud

Of how his little girl turned out

Think she dodged a bullet

Of a good ol' boy like me

'Cause I still

Go drinkin', same friends on Friday

Bought a few acres, couple roads off the highway

Guess you never saw things my way anyway

But I wonder when you're drinkin'

If you find yourself thinkin' about

That boy from East Tennessee

And I know we both knew better

But we still said, "Forever"

And that was seven summers

Of Coke and Southern Comfort

Were we dumb or just younger, who knows?

Back then you used to love the river

And sippin' on a sixer with me

Does it ever make you sad to know

That was seven summers ago?

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Seven summers ago

Seven summers ago

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Yeah, I wonder when you're drinkin'

If you find yourself thinkin' about

That boy from East Tennessee

And I know we both knew better

But we still said, "Forever"

And that was seven summers

Of Coke and Southern Comfort

Were we dumb or just younger, who knows?

Back then, you used to love the river

And sippin' on a sixer with me

Does it ever make you sad to know

That was seven summers ago?

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Seven summers ago

Seven summers ago

Ooh, ooh-ooh
