Boy I Was Back Then Songtext
von Dylan Scott

I used to tear that town up
Used to burn them bars down
Used to act all real tough
Used to try to show out
I hate to say it but the cops used to know my name
A lot of them daddies sure hated me too
That′s the reason my momma prayed
Prayed I'd meet a girl like you

I could talk the talk in the back of a bar
Walk the walk any girl to her car
I could drink the drink to just get drunk
Kiss the kiss without falling in love
I did what I did and didn′t give a damn
I was who I was now I am who I am
But you wouldn't love the man
If you'd ′ve known the boy I was back then


I wasn′t a good guy
I wasn't a bad guy
But I sure wasn′t the guy that you'd wanna spend your life with
Yeah, when I think about those days
All the nights stayed out past two
I ain′t sorry for the hell I raised
Cause hell it led me straight to you

I could talk the talk in the back of a bar
Walk the walk any girl to her car
I could drink the drink to just get drunk
Kiss the kiss without falling in love
I did what I did and didn't give a damn
I was who I was now I am who I am
But you wouldn′t love the man
If you'd 've known the boy I was back then

Back when
I was a wrecking ball
I′d wreck it all
Then I grew up when you made me fall
In love with you


I could talk the talk in the back of a bar
Walk the walk any girl to her car
I could drink the drink to just get drunk
Kiss the kiss without falling in love
I did what I did and didn′t give a damn
I was who I was now I am who I am
But you wouldn't love the man
If you′d 've known the boy I was back then
