Younger Years

Two, one-two-three-four
 ♪
 Johnny's in the drive and he's drinkin' again
 Rough crowd downtown, but they're all my friends
 By the end of the night, I won't recall my name
 Well my Levi jean queen, I've been here all night, see
 Someday, I'll take you somewhere it never rains
 But for right now, I'm tearin' down this town
 How being young is so painful and strange
 ♪
 Deborah's on the bar and she's dancin' again
 To an old folk song that reminds her of him
 She ain't gettin' down 'til they carry her away
 She was his Levi jean queen, but he's long gone now, see
 At the end of the night, she'll get choked up by his name
 And she'll try her best just to let him go
 Well, she's sick and tired of his rough and younger ways
 Lettin' go, movin' on, keepin' strong and findin' God
 I find it awfully odd we made it here
 A few good friends on the longest night, gettin' high until we cry
 Enjoyin' all the pain of younger years
 ♪
 And now I'm drunk and walkin' home all alone, my honey
 Lookin' for a better place to spend my money
 Like takin' my Levi jean queen to see the stars
 Tougher than a lover and leaner than a fighter
 Looks to me, we got another all-nighter
 I think God put us exactly where we are
