18 forever

walker mcguire

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
