I was so young then

Your tongue on my tongue and dancing

A delusional self-important two-step

And you were putting a tulip in my hair

And proving to me that life is not fair

I was tormented

And endlessly tempted

To make a scene at every party you were in attendance

But I was so young then

Your hand on my mouth while

You were pulling the choke valve sending us

Eastward into a fever

And you were filling my teacup with gin

And making sure that I would miss you like a limb

And I did

Where did you run jackrabbit

Did you have fun going wild in the barroom of my heart

You threw em back, getting drunk

As you watched your songbird sing a tune

You got what you wanted and then kicked up dust

My whistling kettle singing your name forever

I wanna press my foot into the pedal through your fences till you get it

But instead I just nurse my drink

And I curse the thing

That made me stay so long into the night that night

It is fun to think about running into you but

I do not know what I'd say

Oh alright I do

Where did you run jackrabbit

Did you have fun going wild in the barroom of my heart

You threw em back, getting drunk

As you watched your songbird sing a tune

You got what you wanted and then kicked up dust

You kicked up dust

You kicked up dust

I was so young then

I was so young

I was so young

I was so young

I was so young

I was so young
