[Verse 1]

We snuck in the back of that college town frat

'Cause they wouldn't let us in the front

Threw their Miller Time keg in a Chevrolet bed

And we let them horses run

Cut a path through the grass, yelling, "Kiss my ass!"

With a middle finger in the wind

We laughed, we drank, every now and then I think

Man, I'd love to do that again

[Chorus]

Those were some good times

Those were the best nights

Thе freedom you feel when you're learning to fly

And thе song on the radio was singin' our lives

I can't say that the moon in the sky

Was shinin' any brighter than it is tonight

But it looked on fire back then

It probably wasn't, but it seemed a little better back when

[Verse 2]

Gravel lot spot by the porta J'ohns

'Bout a quarter mile from the door

Worked three weeks for a pair of cheap seats

To hear "Never Wanted Nothing More"

We were feelin' that buzz from a summertime love

And a bottle tucked in a boot

It's crazy to think that looking back now

But back then, we never knew

[Chorus]

Those were some good times

Those were the best nights

The freedom you feel when you're learning to fly

And the song on the radio was singin' our lives

I can't say that the moon in the sky

Was shinin' any brighter than it is tonight

But it looked on fire back then

It probably wasn't, but it seemed a little better back when

[Bridge]

I ain't sayin' that right now ain't right where I wanna be

But I swear time adds a little shine to a long-gone memory

[Chorus]

Those were some good times

Those were the best nights

The freedom you feel when you're learning to fly

And the song on the radio was singin' our lives

I can't say that the moon in the sky

Was shinin' any brighter than it is tonight

But it looked on fire back then

It probably wasn't, but it seemed a little better back when

[Outro]

Yeah, it seemed a little better back when
