It was

1989, my thoughts were

short my hair was

long,

Caught somewhere bet

ween a boy and

man,

She was 17 and she was

far from in bet

ween, It was

summertime in

Northern

Michigan,

Splashin thru the sandbar,

talkin by the

campfire

Its the

simple things in,

life like when and

where

We

didnt have no internet, but

man I never

will forget

The

way the moonlight,

shined upon her

hair

And we were

tryin different things, and we were

smokin funny

things

Makin

love out by the,

lake to our favorite

songs

Sippin

whisky out the bottle not,

thinkin bout to

morrow

Singin

sweet home ala

bama all,

summer long

,

Singin

sweet home ala

bama all

summer long, Catchin

walleye from the dock watchin

waves roll off the

rocks, Shell for

ever hold a

spot inside my

soul, Wed

blister in the sun we couldnt

wait for night to

come, To

hit that sandy

place of rock n

roll, And we were

tryin different things

and we were

smokin funny

things, Makin

love out by the

lake to our favorite

songs, Sippin

whisky out the bottle not

thinkin bout to

morrow, Singin

sweet home ala

bama all

summer long,

Singin

sweet home ala

bama all,

summer long

,

Now

nothin seems as strange as when the

leaves began to

change, Oh

how we thought those

days would never

end, Some

times I hear that song and Ill

start to sing a

long, And think

man Id like to

see that girl a

gain, And think

man Id like to

see that girl a

gain, And we were

tryin different things

and we were

smokin funny

things, Makin

love out by the

lake to our favorite

songs, Sippin

whisky out the bottle not

thinkin bout to

morrow, Singin

sweet home ala

bama all

summer long,

Singin

sweet home ala

bama all,

summer long

Singin

sweet home ala

bama
