Twenty dollars out of momma's purse bought us a tank of gas

And a pack of tobacco when, we was just teenage kids.

Me and Jack and Danny we'd go driving round

F C

If there was trouble to be found, heh, then we found it quick.

Am G C

Cuttin' donuts in the fields ‘till old man Smith would call the cops

Am G

And he'd come running out with a shotgun ‘cause we was

Running down his crops.

Dm Em F G

And I reckon he's still wonderin who that was,

Some of these local boys moved on but we never changed a bit

Never had a scrap of sense, at least that's what some folks said.

Yeah we finally turned old enough to buy our own beer

Don't remember about that year, just lucky that were not dead.

Am G C

‘Cause somebody said they saw some boys with a ute looked just like mine

Trying to pull down that old water tank that sits out by the railway line.

People wonder why it leans the way it does.

Am G C

Seems like small towns never change but things get tough when times get hard

‘Cause he was getting way behind on all his bills

But someone came and brought his crops in from the fields
