That Was Us

Me and Teddy used to burn that old Chevy
All the way up to Mary Lee's
One of the guy's a kinda ride or die
And we were thick as thieves

The whole damn town said when we come around
We're as mean as a four-letter word
Up to no good fun, no, we didn't have much
Just a whole lotta time to burn

So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us, ay

We crossed county line for a kegger one night
There were some girls we had never seen
Teddy had his eye locked on a dime
Mary said, she was lookin' at me

Standin' there sippin' on a smoke
And a cheap-ass bottle of rum
She said, "My name's Katie, you're my kinda crazy
And it takes one to know one"

So, if we got high, we got stoned
If there was a fight, we got it on
If there was a backseat, we made love
That was then and that was us

Mary Lee started hangin', started talkin'
With a boy with a checkered past
It wouldn't long 'fore he showed his true colors
And he left her all blue and black

Cops stopped us runnin' 90
With a loaded pistol and a bottle of booze
And it's a good damn thing them blue lights got us
'Fore we did what we was gonna do

So, if we got high (if we got high, yeah, you know, we're gonna roll it up)
We got stoned (if we got high, yeah, you know, we got stoned)
If there was a fight (if there was a fight, yeah, you know, we're gonna pack a punch)
We got it on (if there was a fight, we got it on)

If there was a backseat (in the back of the seat, you know, we got tangled up)
We made love (in the back of the seat, you know, we made love)
That was then (that was then)
And that was us

If we got high, yeah, you know, we're gonna roll it up
If we got high, yeah, you know, we got stoned
If there was a fight, yeah, you know, we're gonna pack a punch
If there was a fight, we got it on

In the back of the seat, you know, we got tangled up
In the back of the seat, you know, we made love
That was then and that's still us
Come on
