Just Kids Songtext
von Mat Kearney

′Cause is was Bell Biv DeVoe
Playin' on my raido
And i had Wu Tang Clan
Livin′ in my stereo
Mama said we're 6th generation oregonians
I was rocking them jordans
With reflective tounges
Two kids with Metsmit
Living down in their souls
They say what gets carved when you're young
Stays there when you′re old
So misunderstood they say
You′re up to no good
And now were trying our best
To start it all over again
If i had met you at the playground
Before a hand could tear your world down
Before I slamed down the the door and
You said I'm just like my old man
Before I put you in those boxes


And we learned how to disagree
And how your family is a rocket
That blows up in infedlity
For crying out loud I want to know
How the waves keep crashing down the door
Feel the weight of the world and they keep on bringing more
If it′s just you and me on the floor
Go grab your coat and I'll drive us home
Like we were just kids
Like we were just
Bob Marley was painted on
My highschool wall
But, I′d just disappear
Into the dark room hall
Never thought I'd ever
Make it quite this far
Teacher put up my photographs
And say son you′ll be a star
It was smoking mirrors
Running down through my veins
I kept on running down town
Running from god's grace
Every morning I'd climb back through
Those window panes
Tried my best to write it out
Over instrumental tapes
If I had met you at the playground
Before a hand could tear your world down
Before I slamed down the door and
You said I′m just like my old man
Before I put you in those boxes
And we learned how to disagree
And how your family is a rocket
That blows up in infedility
For crying out loud i want to know
How the waves keep crashing down the door
Feel the weight of the world and they keep on bringing more
If its just you and me on the floor
Go grab your coat and I′ll drive us home
Like we were just kids
Like we were just
I can feel it in the way we try
I can feel it in the way we fly
We're standing side by side
Like we were just kids
I can feel it in the way we try
I can feel it in the way we fly
We′re standing side by side
Like we were just kids
I can feel it in the way we try
I can feel it in the way we fly
We're standing side by side
Like we were just kids
I can feel it in the way we try
I can feel it in the way we fly
We′re standing side by side
Like we were just kids
