Back When We Was Kids Lyrics

Well I grew up in the shadow of the Rockies in the grand old West yes sir I
did



And dammed if we didn't have us a bunch of fun back when we was kids



Yea there was manure on our britches snuff pouchin' out our lip



And hat's so big you can almost tell who's under it



Yea we all had horses it was always a race



It was real important who got there first



We sneak along some of the old man's whisky just to quench our little thirst



Yeah we looked like a bunch of hon yaks but we could ride like Casy Tibbs



And we still had to learn how far we could go before we learned when to quit







Yea we scratched where it itches and clowned around



There wasn't nobody who could kick our hound



Just throwin' knives and shootin' guns generally have in a bunch of fun



Well the mommas all thought we were angels and hell we let 'em go right
ahead



But the old man had a hew more savvy in him



And a feller had to be careful around him



Yea wars were fought on contact and the wild seeds were sown



And we always spent our money like we found it in the road



Well one thing lead to another and before we knowned it it was gone



But I'll give you a hundred dollars just to have some more of them goings on



Cause we looked like a bunch...



Yea it's a lot of fun learning how far you can go



It's kinda hard learning when to quit but I'll bet you already know
