everyone's summer of '95

they heard a car sputter away too soon

me and the boys from the billiards room

found a shady tree

halfway home and goin' nowhere

casey was asked for his favorite joke

fluttered away just before he spoke

but he came to me

halfway home and goin' nowhere

all i can tell you is how we spent the time

friends are made in the strangest ways

and i'll miss them by and by

late in the day and the dust kicked up

me and the boys with the windows shut

and the music on

halfway home and goin' nowhere

everyone's summer of '95

vivid and there 'til the tape had died

on our favorite song

halfway home and goin' nowhere

hitchin' a ride with a crusty girl

me and the boys stole a tie-dye shirt

and a kiss or two

halfway home and goin' nowhere

casey was wise with the mud flap guy

smothered and bruised in the neon light

and we all went down

halfway home and goin' nowhere

all i can tell you is how we spent the time

friends are made in the strangest ways

and i'll miss them by and by

back on our feet and the car backs in

me and the boys at the billiards room

comin' back on beer

halfway home and goin' nowhere

casey will crack up

a fight broke loose

i'm in the back thinkin' i must choose

but i like it here

halfway home and goin' nowhere
