it was 1989   my thoughts were small my hair was long   caught somewhere between a boy and a man   she was seventeen and she was far from inbetween   it was summertime in southern michigan   splashing through the sand bar   talking by the camp fire   its the simple things in life like when and where   we didnt have no internet   but man i will never forget   the way the moon light shined in her hair   we were trying diffrent things   we were smoking silly things   making love out by the lake to our favorite song   sipping whiskey out the bottle   not thinking bout tommorow   singing sweet old alabama all summer long x2   catching walle from the dock   watching the waves roll of the rocks   shell forever hold a spot in my sole   wed blister in the sun   we couldnt wait for night to come to hit the sand and play rock and roll   while we were trying diffrent things we werre smoking funny things   making love out by the lake to our favorite song   drinking whiskey out the bottle   not thinking bout tommorow   singing sweet old alabama all night long x2
