[Verse 1]

Hey, it was bumper-to-bumper around the town square

Windows rolled down, filled with summer air

We were barking tires, peeling outta there

To make the girls stare, make the girls stare

[Verse 2]

Drive from the Sonic across the railroad track

Down to the mall, then make your way back

Take your Route 44 Coke, and pour out half

Make room for Jack, fill it up with Jack and it was

[Chorus]

(Oh, oh) Yeah, we were like kings and queens (Oh, oh)

Cruising South Jackson Street (Oh, oh)

Riding up and down that all night merry-go-round (Oh, oh)

Just more of the same old same (Oh, oh)

Making memories with time to waste (Oh, oh)

And when it ran out, we took one last lap around this town

[Verse 3]

Hot little honey climbing on up in my truck

Rolling along, sitting shotgun

Look like a firecracker coming undone

Make your heart jump

And jump, jump like

[Chorus]

(Oh, oh) Yeah, we were like kings and queens (Oh, oh)

Cruising South Jackson Street (Oh, oh)

Riding up and down that all night merry-go-round (Oh, oh)

Just more of the same old same (Oh, oh)

Making memories with time to waste (Oh, oh)

And when it ran out, we took one last lap around this town

[Bridge]

And every time I come back here

It takes me back to the years

When we would drive around, and around, and around, and around singing

[Chorus]

(Oh, oh) Yeah, we were like kings and queens (Oh, oh)

Cruising South Jackson Street (Oh, oh)

Riding up and down that all night merry-go-round (Oh, oh)

Just more of the same old same (Oh, oh)

Making memories with time to waste (Oh, oh)

And when it ran out, we took one last lap around this town

(Oh, oh) Yeah, we were like kings and queens (Oh, oh)

Cruising South Jackson Street (Oh, oh)

Riding up and down that all night merry-go-round (Oh, oh)

Just more of the same old same (Oh, oh)

Making memories with time to waste (Oh, oh)

And when it ran out, we took one last lap around this town
