Back When I Knew It All

At the ripe ol' age of nineteen

I bought a short-bed pick-up-chick machine

Life ran on beer and gasoline

A half a lap ahead of the law

I had a fake ID that got me into Tuffy's

"Love" was a word I used to get lucky

Was a big time spender with that plastic money

Back when I knew it all

Back when the world was flat

And Mom and Daddy didn't have a clue

That was back

Back when a pitcher of beer

And a couple shots made me bulletproof

Back when "God" was a name I used in vain

To get a point across when I got ticked off

Lord, I'm learning so much more than

Back when I knew it all

I found out credit cards don't mean you're rich

And beer and gasoline don't mix

Yeah, and step side trucks can't jump a ditch

And those "big house" rooms sure are small

I've learned that love is a woman that'll settle you down

A Sunday sermon can turn life around

And I can't believe answers I've found

Since back when I knew it all

Back when the world was flat

And Mom and Daddy didn't have a clue

That was back

Back when a pitcher of beer

And a couple shots made me bulletproof

Back when "God" was a name I used in vain

To get a point across when I got ticked off

Lord, I'm learning so much more than

Back when I knew it all

I've done some growing up

And I'm still growing up

So I know I'll never be as smart as I once was

That was back…

When the world was flat

And Mom and Daddy didn't have a clue

Way back

Back when a pitcher of beer

And a couple shots made me bulletproof

Back when "God" was a name I used in vain

To get a point across when I got ticked off

Lord, I'm learning so much more than

Back when I knew it all

Back when I knew it all
