Bring me back
To an hour ago
Time stands still
As the years go by
Brown eyed girl
That's throwing down
A bottle of Old English
Back in the warehouse
Old days are fine
But are left so far behind
From California
To Jane Streets
The kids are alright
Alright as they'll ever be
Cause you will always be my,
Well you will always be my,
You will always be my sweet sixteen
Sleep on the floor
On cardboard
Stab out my heart
Like a dart board
Brown skinned girl
That I've dreamed about
A long long time now
From the Mid-West
To the beach
Old days are fine
But are left so far behind
From California
To Jane Streets
The kids are alright
Alright as they'll ever be
Cause you will always be my,
Well you will always be my,
You will always be my sweet sixteen
Old days are fine
But are left so far behind
From California
To Jane Streets
The kids are alright
Alright as they'll ever be
Cause you will always be my,
Well you will always be my,
You will always be my sweet sixteen
