"18 Forever" lyrics

Four squeezed in on a bench seat
Five holding on in the bed
Slip Joe's older brother a 20, that was plenty
For a case of beer and a pack of reds
And we were set

We wore our jerseys on Fridays
Felt like kings of the world
Class ring hanging on a silver chain
From the neck of your girl

Hey, back when young and dumb was beautiful
We knew that we knew it all, no one to prove us wrong
Those were the days, couldn't wait to lose our innocence
Bragging 'bout it to our friends, Monday after prom
Thought we'd always be together, didn't know any better
Back when we thought we'd be 18 forever
18 forever

Back when freedom was a set of car keys
And we were half a tank from anywhere
Yeah, I'm still wearing that memory on me
We got tattoos on a dare, 'cause we didn't care

Hey, back when young and dumb was beautiful
We knew that we knew it all, no one to prove us wrong
Those were the days, couldn't wait to lose our innocence
Bragging 'bout it to our friends, Monday after prom
Thought we'd always be together, didn't know any better
Back when we thought we'd be 18 forever
18 forever

Well it's crazy how those fast times
Ones you thought would always last times
Kinda wish you had 'em back times

Hey, back when young and dumb was beautiful
We knew that we knew it all, no one to prove us wrong
Those were the days, couldn't wait to lose our innocence
Bragging 'bout it to our friends, Monday after prom
Thought we'd always be together, didn't know any better
Back when we thought we'd be 18 forever
18 forever
18 forever, yeah
