Travis Randy - That Was Us lyrics

Twenty dollars out of mama's purse

Bought us a tank of gas

And some Redman Tobacco

When we were just teenage kids.

Me and my old buddy Leroy

We'd go drivin' around

If there was trouble to be found

Oh, man we dang sure did.

Cuttin' donuts in the fields

So old man Smith would call the cops

He'd come runnin' out with his shotgun

'Cause we were runnin' down his crops

And I reckon he's still wonderin'

Who that was, but that was us.

Now some of these local boys moved on

But we never changed a bit

Never had a lick of sense

Least that's what some folks said.

Then finally we turned old enough

To buy our own beer

Don't remember much about that year

Juct lucky we ain't dead.

Somebody said they saw some boys

With a truck looked just like mine

Tryin' to pull down that old water tank

That sits out on the county line.

And people wonder why it leans

The way it does, that was us.

--- Instrumental ---

Seems like small towns never change

But things get tough when times get hard

They said when he got sick

Old man Smith would a lost that farm.

'Cause he was gettin' way behind

On all his bills

But somebody brought his crops in

From the field.

Yeah, and folks around here

Still wonder who that was.

That was us.

That was us.

That was us.

That was us.

That was us...
