Boy I Was Back Then

I used to tear that town up Used to burn them bars down Used to act all real tough Used to try to show out I hate to say it but the cops used to know my name A lot of them daddies sure hated me too That's the reason my momma prayed Prayed I'd meet a girl like you I could talk the talk in the back of a bar Walk the walk any girl to her car I could drink the drink to just get drunk Kiss the kiss without falling in love I did what I did and didn't give a damn I was who I was now I am who I am But you wouldn't love the man If you'd 've known the boy I was back then I wasn't a good guy I wasn't a bad guy But I sure wasn't the guy that you'd wanna spend your life with Yeah, when I think about those days All the nights stayed out past two I ain't sorry for the hell I raised Cause hell it led me straight to you I could talk the talk in the back of a bar Walk the walk any girl to her car I could drink the drink to just get drunk Kiss the kiss without falling in love I did what I did and didn't give a damn I was who I was now I am who I am But you wouldn't love the man If you'd 've known the boy I was back then Back when I was a wrecking ball I'd wreck it all Then I grew up when you made me fall In love with you I could talk the talk in the back of a bar Walk the walk any girl to her car I could drink the drink to just get drunk Kiss the kiss without falling in love I did what I did and didn't give a damn I was who I was now I am who I am But you wouldn't love the man If you'd 've known the boy I was back then
