Intro :
It was 1989 , my thoughts were short my hair was long
Caught somewhere b etween a boy an d man
She was 17 and she wa s far from in between
It was summertime in Norther n Michigan
(Reprendre l'intro)
Spl ashin'thru the sandbar, talkin'by the campfire
It's the s imple things in life like when and where
We d idn't have no internet, bu t man I never will forget
The way the moonlight shined upon he r hair
And we were tryin'different things and we were smokin'funny things
Makin'l ove out by the lake to our favorite songs
Sippin'w hisky out the bottle not thinkin''bout tomorrow
Singin's weet home ala bama all summer long
Singin's weet home ala bama all summer long
Catchin'w alleye from the dock watchin' waves roll off the rocks
She'll for ever hold a s pot inside my soul
We'd b lister in the sun we couldn' t wait for night to come
To hit that sandy place of rock ' n roll
(Instrumental)
Now nothin'seems as strange as when the leaves began to change
Oh how we thought those days would neve r end
Some times I hear that song and I'l l start to sing along
And think man I'd like to see that girl again
