Lookin' Back

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Lookin' back on the things we did,

I remember when I was a kid,

Lookin' back when my daddy said no,

Oh yeah Johnny go, go, go.

Lookin' back on the things we tried,

And we lost and we cried, cried, cried,

Lookin' back when my daddy said no,

Oh yeah Johnny go, go, go.

Lookin' back on the things we did,

So what, well I was a kid,

One little girl, she broke my heart,

Mama said we had to part.

I was always late for school,

Didn't like it's silly rules, I couldn't wait for the end of term,

All my history books I'd burn, I'd burn.

Lookin' back on the things we did,

I remember when I was a kid,

Lookin' back when my daddy said no,

Oh yeah Johnny go, go, go.

Lookin' back on the things we tried,

And we lost and we cried, cried, cried,

Lookin' back when my daddy said no,

Oh yeah Johnny go, go, go.

(Instrumental)

Lookin' back on the things we did,

I remember when I was a kid,

Lookin' back when my daddy said no,

Oh yeah Johnny go, go, go.

Lookin' back on the things we tried,

And we lost and we cried, cried, cried,

Lookin' back when my daddy said no,

Oh yeah Johnny go, go, go.

Lookin' back on the things we did,

So what, well I was a kid,

One little girl, she broke my heart,

Mama said we had to part.

I was always late for school,

Didn't like it's silly rules, I couldn't wait for the end of term,

All my history books I'd burn, I'd burn.

Lookin' back on the things we did,

I remember when I was a kid,

Lookin' back when my daddy said no,

Oh yeah Johnny go, go, go.

Lookin' back on the things we tried,

And we lost and we cried, cried, cried,

Lookin' back when my daddy said no,

Oh yeah Johnny go, go, go.
