Glory Days

I had a friend was a big baseball player Back in high school He could throw that speedball by you Make you look like a fool boy Saw him the other night at this roadside bar I was walking in, he was walking out We went back inside sat down had a few drinks But all he kept talking about was Glory days, they'll pass you by Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye Glory days, glory days Well, there's a girl that lives up the block Back in school she could turn all the boy's heads Sometimes on a Friday I'll stop by And have a few drinks after she put her kids to bed Her and her husband Bobby, well, they split up I guess it's two years gone by now Ohh, we just sit around talking about the old times She says when she feels like crying She starts laughing thinking about Glory days, they'll pass you by Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye Glory days, glory days Now I think I'm going down to the well tonight And I'm gonna drink till I get my fill And I hope when I get old I don't sit around talking about it But I know I probably will Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture Little of the glory of, time slips away And leaves you with nothing mister but Boring stories of Glory days, they'll pass you by Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye Glory days, glory days Glory days, they'll pass you by Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye Glory days, glory days, yeah
