lyrics

Days are Gone

At 13 doing drugs was a natural thing
Me and my boys did some really crazy things
At 15 we set the dyke on fire
And got higher and higher than we’d ever get
Gimme gimme gimmie, Jimmy never quits

Spray Paint the school
Actin’ like a fool
On a half-sac and hand rolled cigarettes
Long gone but you’ll never forget

Long Gone, those days are gone
Long Gone, those days are gone
Long Gone, those days are gone
Long Gone, those days are gone

Jimmy’s Dad always let us smoke in the house
Getting high and laughing hard was what it was all about
Hanging out at the 7-E, the cops all hassling us
Desperados in denim jeans, ten speed bikes were always must, always a bust

Spray Paint the school
Actin’ like a fool
On a half-sac and hand rolled cigarettes
Long gone but you’ll never forget

Long Gone, those days are gone
Long Gone, those days are gone
Long Gone, those days are gone
Long Gone, those days are gone
