"When We Were Boys" lyrics

"When We Were Boys"

When we were boys
We used to play
Mama kept pain out of our day
Warm southern rain fell on our face
When we were boys

When we were boys
Our hearts were young
Pa's old guitar
Was always strong
Out on the breeze
Our voices roam
When we were boys

When we were boys
The whole world was ours
We owned the trees
The sky and the flowers
And our only fear
Was being called cowards
And the breaking of toys
When we were boys

When we were boys
We used to find sharp sticks and frogs
And pieces of twine
We both felt love
When they beat our behinds
When we were boys

When we were boys
We knew we'd grow old
Sure as the summer
Turns to cold
But with our memories
Worth more than gold
But when we were boys
