Lyrics

I'm flipping through a book of photos
I found my birth certificate
A treasure trove of Polaroids
My sister, she was probably six
In this one, look at mom and dad
He was still in college bagging groceries full time
Spare time odd job and mom's basketball pick
State champ four times
And who's that goofy Cub Scout?
We won't talk about mine
That's my granddad's flat nose Chevy van
He taught me how to work and cuss like a man
We were all being taught something we don't understand
Keep your eye on the ball and what's the proper stance
And every day was sunny, even when it rained
Hard to tell if it's funny or sad how things change
Look at that spiked mullet, lines cut in the side
And that look on my face, man, that's nothing but pride
And that's me, Atlanta Hawks, number four
Slamming that Nerf on my bedroom door
And it goes on and on and on and on
I know I got the rest of my life
But that ain't long as it used to be
My my, how time flies by
And it goes on and on and on and on
Next thing you know you wonder where the years have gone
And trying to wish it back won't work
Who'd have thought a good memory could hurt so bad
Look at the kid in this picture
Wearing that Oxford and khakis
And penny loafers with dimes in 'em
My thoughts drifting back
I remember feeling invincible
The future was mine
Ready to take on the world
But those were simpler times
Never a straight A student
I didn't make great grades
Three sport athlete
I made a few great plays
I had this black Chevy Nova
Jacked up in the back
With a 350 sitting on some Cragar mags
I was a bad boy
Definitely not the baddest
But my confidence level was on rock star status
Spring break at the lake
Better yet, Panama City
No reservations or money
Man, let's just go, come and get me
Now where were you when Spud Webb won the dunk contest?
I was on cloud nine 'cause I was just a little guy
And I watched this 5'7" slam ten feet so fresh
And knew I couldn't be denied
And it goes on and on and on and on
I know I got the rest of my life
But that ain't long as it used to be
My my, how time flies by
And it goes on and on and on and on
Next thing you know you wonder where the years have gone
And trying to wish it back won't work
Who'd have thought a good memory could hurt so bad
And I don't know what tomorrow holds
But I know I can't live in the past
And it's hard when all of your childhood dreams
Are the same ones you still have
And it seems just like yesterday
In a blur it all went by
It's like I fell asleep at sixteen
And woke up forty-five
And it goes on and on and on and on
I know I got the rest of my life
But that ain't long as it used to be
My my, how time flies by
And it goes on and on and on and on
Next thing you know you wonder where the years have gone
And trying to wish it back won't work
Who'd have thought a good memory could hurt so bad
