Intro

C F G

C F G

C F C

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

F C G

And some red man tobacco when we was just teenage kids

C F C

Yeah me and my ole' buddy Leroy we'd go driving around

F C

If there was trouble to be found, man we dang sure did

Am G C

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

Am G C

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

crops

Dm Em F G

I reckon he still wonders who that was

C F G

That was us

C F C

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

F C G

Don't guess we had enough sense, at least that's what some folks said

C F C

Yeah we finally turned old enough to buy our own beer

F C

Don't remember much about that year, lucky we ain't dead

Am G C

'Cause somebody said they saw some boys with a truck looked just like mine

Am G C

Trying to pull down that old water tank sits out on the county line

Dm Em F G

People wonder why it leans the way it does

C

That was us

Am G C

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

Am G C

And they said when he got sick that old man Smith would have lost that farm

Am G C

'Cause he was getting way behind on all his bills

Am G C

But someone came and brought his crops in from the fields

Dm Em F G

Yeah folks 'round here still don't know who that was

C F G C F G

That was us

C F G

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

C F G

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

crops

C F G

Somebody said they saw some boys with a truck looked just like mine

C F G

Trying to pull down that old water tank sits out on the county line

C F G

That was us

C F G C

Yeah that was us
