Looks like it's gonna be one of those days
Sittin' here in traffic twenty minutes late
Just about there when that ol' DJ plays
A song that takes me back

Had a beat up car with a new tape deck
A pure jump shock nothin' but net
A three piece band and a Gibson Firebrand
The first song I learned was "Sweet Home, Alabam"

Summer outta school we were six or seventeen
You wrapped some tape around my new class ring
An life was so fine
Back in those times
Drinkin' them ponies up on Tiger Hill
Yeah, I miss it hey I wish it wasn't over, still
I don't want to go back to stay
But what I wouldn't give for one of those days

I don't know how I got exactly where I am
From those ol' back roads to this traffic jam
Wishin' I could find me an exit ramp
An just keep right on goin'

I wonder if you ever hear an old song
An think about us when you're singin' along
Comin' home an tellin' your mom and pa
'Bout all them movies we never saw

Summer outta school we were six or seventeen
You wrapped some tape around my new class ring
An life was so fine
Back in those times
Drinkin' them ponies up on Tiger Hill
Hey,I miss it hey I wasn't over still
I don't want to go back to stay
But what I wouldn't give for

One of those days when one of these days comes along
One of those days that just don't seem so far gone
Take me home now

Summer outta school we were six or seventeen
We were datin' baby waitin' we were full of our dreams
An life was so fine
Back in those times
Drinkin' them ponies up on Tiger Hill
Yeah,I miss it hey I wish it wasn't over still
I don't want to go back to stay
I am the man I am today

But sometimes time turns a careful page
An what I wouldn't give for one of those days
One of those days
One of those days
Gimme one of those days
